Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit device in which connections within and between logic unit cells can be efficiently made is provided. Logic unit cells each including a plurality of basic cells are extended in an X-direction. To form one logic unit cell, second-layer wiring regions for making connections within the logic unit cell are formed in the X-direction, i.e., the extending direction. If there are five Y-coordinate channels, the second-layer wiring regions are formed only at one Y-coordinate channel. Second-layer wiring regions for connecting logic unit cells are also formed in the X-direction, and can be situated at any of the remaining four Y-coordinate channels.
