Abstract
Function circuits composing one function macro are divided and mounted on plural chips, plural internal clock signals having different phases with one another are generated based on a clock signal to be a reference, a phase of a clock signal supplied to the function circuits within the chips is adjusted based on a result of a test operation performed by using a selected internal clock signal, a clock signal with an optimal phase is obtained from among the plural internal clock signals having the different phases with one another, and a skew generated by being divided into the plural chips is adjusted automatically to thereby realize a proper operation of the circuits as a whole.
