Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A semiconductor device is disclosed in which a plurality of memory cores are provided on a semiconductor chip. Each of the memory cores comprises: first and second circuit regions and a first and second through electrode groups. a first power supply is supplied in the first circuit region in which a data bus for parallel data is driven, and a second power supply separated from the first power supply is supplied in the second circuit region in which the parallel data and serial data are bidirectionally converted. The first through electrode group includes through electrodes supplying the first power supply to the first circuit region, and the second through electrode group includes through electrodes supplying the second power supply to the second circuit region.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A semiconductor device comprising: a first chip including first and second voltage terminals electrically independent of each other and a first data terminal, the first and second voltage terminals being supplied with first and second voltages, respectively; and a second chip stacked with the first chip, the second chip that includes: third and fourth voltage terminals electrically coupled to the first and second voltage terminals of the first chip,…
