PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To shorten the logic design period of an integrated circuit by preventing connection mistakes of wiring and description mistakes when designing a logic. SOLUTION: In order to connect an IO cell to be connected to an external terminal, to a logic circuit, connection specifications of terminals of the IP cell and terminals of the logic circuit are inputted from the outside and circuit elements are automatically inserted between the IO cell and the logic circuit in accordance with the connection specifications. Then connection relations of elements constituting the integrated circuit are extracted to generate a netlist. Therefore, required circuit elements are surely inserted between the IO cell and the logic circuit in accordance with the connection specifications. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
