Abstract
An integrated circuit device including first to Nth circuit blocks CBto CBN disposed along a first direction D, when the first direction Dis a direction from a first side of the integrated circuit device toward a third side which is opposite to the first side, the first side being a short side, and when a second direction Dis a direction from a second side of the integrated circuit device toward a fourth side which is opposite to the second side, the second side being a long side. The circuit blocks CBto CBN include a high-speed interface circuit block HB which transfers data through a serial bus using differential signals, and a circuit block other than HB. The high-speed interface circuit block HB is disposed as an Mth circuit block CBM (2≦M≦N−1) of the circuit blocks CBto CBN.
