Abstract
A method of configuring a semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) includes arranging a circuit region in the center of a unit cell. Capacitor/resistor regions are arranged along the left and right edge portions of the unit cell. The capacitor/resistor regions include a plurality of active resistors having the same length and a capacitor having a width equal to the length of the plurality of active resistors. In addition, a first conductive layer is arranged longitudinally in each of the capacitor/resistor regions so as to contact the left and right edge portions of the unit cell.
