Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3651654
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow connection at a high freedom level in wiring, without violating a design rule, related to connection with other cells.
SOLUTION: A function macro 2 comprises wiring layers 5 and 6 of two or more layers allocated in a connection pin region 1, and a via contact 4 allocated in a region except for a region (contact inhibited region) 3 which is extended from the connection region 1 and the end part of the connection pin region 1 by a specified distance determined by a design rule. Related to connection to other cells such as a random logic 20, a violation in the design rule is avoided from occurring between a via contact of the random logic 20 and the via contact 4 of the function macro 2.
