Connection between an I/O region and the core region of an integrated circuit

摘要

A connection between a first circuit within an I/O region of an integrated circuit chip and a second circuit within a core region of the chip. The first circuit is connected to a bonding pad through a first conductor in a first layer of an I/O region. The second circuit is connected to the bonding pad through a second conductor in a second layer of an I/O region above the first layer.
