The height H of several kinds of basic cell are made the same and several kinds of macro cell which have a length which is an integral multiplication of the height H of this basic cell, are prepared, the basic cell and macro cell are mixed and the circuit of a peripheral circuit is designed. A M0 wire of a first wiring layer which is formed on a semiconductor substrate is used as a wire used within a macro cell. The basic cell and the macro cell are connected by a M1 wire of a second wiring layer which is formed on the first wiring layer and a M2 wire M2 of a third wiring layer. The transistor layout of basic cells and macro cells is designed and verified in advance and stored in a cell library, and auto routing by a standard method may be carried out.
