An input/output (I/O) sensor is provided for a multi-IC (Integrated Circuit) module. The I/O sensor includes: a signal input, configured to receive a data signal from an interconnected part of an IC of the multi-IC module; and a time duration measurement circuit, configured to measure a time duration between a first time, at which the data signal is at a first level, and a second time, at which the data signal is at a second level, different from the first level. The sensor may be incorporated into an I/O block, an IC, and/or a multi-IC module.
