Abstract
Disclosed herein is a capacitive element formed by multilayer wirings, wherein a total capacitance, intralayer capacitance and interlayer capacitance are calculated for a plurality of device structures by changing parameters relating to the multilayer wirings in an integrated circuit, a device structure is identified, from among the plurality of device structures, whose difference in the total capacitance between the device structures is equal to or less than a predetermined level and at least either of whose ratio of the intralayer capacitance to the total capacitance or ratio of the interlayer capacitance to the total capacitance satisfies a predetermined condition, and the parameters of the device structure satisfying the predetermined condition are determined as the parameters of the multilayer wirings.
