Semiconductor device
Provided is a semiconductor device in which influence resulting from a cell function change can be reduced. The semiconductor device includes a function cell designed using a basic cell including a first wiring layer provided over a main surface of a semiconductor substrate and having a predetermined pattern and a second wiring layer provided over the first wiring layer and having a predetermined pattern. The function cell corresponds to the basic cell which is modified to have a predetermined function by changing the pattern of the second wiring layer at a design stage. The function cell has a first layout and a second layout which are disposed in juxtaposition in one direction in a plane parallel with the main surface. The function cell is provided with the predetermined function by coupling together wires belonging to the respective second wiring layers of the first layout and the second layout.

Structure for interconnect parasitic extraction
A structure for extracting interconnect parasitic in a ring oscillator is disclosed. The ring oscillator comprises multiple logical units connected in head to tail series. The structure comprises parasitic resistance sub-structures and/or parasitic capacitance sub-structures each connected to a corresponding logical unit. The structure can be used to determine errors in extracting parasitic resistance of polysilicon interconnects and metal interconnects, and/or errors in extracting parasitic capacitance between the polysilicon interconnects and between the metal interconnects. Therefore, the parasitic extraction error can be calibrated accordingly to obtain more precise circuit simulation results and more accurate device model and BEOL model.
