PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a designing method of a semiconductor integrated circuit with which a voltage drop value of respective nodes can be suppressed even if leakage current due to gate leakage and channel leakage occurs. SOLUTION: Leakage current obtained by adding gate leakage and channel leakage is calculated at every node in the semiconductor integrated circuit. Since a buffer is inserted into the node where the voltage drop valueΔVg by calculated leakage current exceeds a threshold, a fault that voltage of the node becomes instable owing to gate leakage and channel leakage does not occur and reliability of the circuit improves.
