ロブロックである。In FIG. 5, a ladder-like power supply wiring network is formed, and the outermost power supply wiring network is connected to external power supply pads 1 to 4 and 11 to 14. Further, B is a macroblock made by combining all basic cells.

下させる結果となる。On the other hand, although there is no common power network pattern in general, there are cases where power lines are handled and wired in the same way as normal signal lines. In this case, only the width of the power supply line can be changed depending on the amount of current. However, wiring patterns having different line widths are arranged irregularly, resulting in a significant deterioration in wiring performance for normal signal lines.
