ABSTRACT:
An interconnect configuration technology of making an access from an IP mounted on a semiconductor chip to an IP mounted on another semiconductor chip by transmitting and receiving a packet transferred through an interconnect built in a semiconductor chip among the chips using the 3D coupling technology. The device according to the technology has an initiator for transmitting an access request, a target for receiving the access request and transmitting an access response, a router for relaying the access request and the access response, and a 3D coupling circuit (three-dimensional transceiver) for performing communication with the outside, wherein the 3D coupling circuit is disposed adjacent to the router.
