Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a plurality of layers stacked in a first direction, a plurality of unit circuits at least partially overlapping each other in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction and configured to operate in parallel with one another, control circuitry configured to generate a control signal to control the plurality of unit circuits, and a multi-layer conducting line configured to transfer the control signal from the control circuitry to the plurality of unit circuits. The multi-layer conducting line may be integrally formed in a wiring layer and a via layer and extends in the second direction. The wiring layer and the via layer may be adjacent to each other.
