  • Patent number: 11749355
    Abstract: According to a certain embodiment, the semiconductor integrated circuit includes a multi-chip package comprising a plurality of memory chips, and a controller configured to control the multi-chip package. Each of the plurality of memory chips includes a logic control unit including a logic unit circuit configured to detect a potential from a wiring pad. The logic unit circuit determines a master chip or a slave chip on the basis of the potential detected from the wiring pad, the master chip transmits a pulse count and a status response command to the slave chip, so that the slave chip sets a logical unit number of its own memory chip, and the master chip sets a total number of chips loaded on the basis of status information from the slave chip.
