In one embodiment, a method is provided for monitoring signals
communicated between a first integrated circuit chip and a second
integrated circuit chip within a single packaged semiconductor device,
wherein at least some external terminals for the packaged semiconductor
device are shared by the first and second integrated circuit chips. The
method includes the following: receiving signals from the first
integrated circuit chip at a plurality of bond pads on the second
integrated circuit chip; selecting a portion of the received signals; and
outputting the selected portion of the received signals from the single
packaged semiconductor device.
