PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a low-cost and high-performance monolithic IC by combining a desired active device and a desired wiring process, with designers working as a core. SOLUTION: Each of function circuit specifications 101 is determined, taking a specified device characteristic specification 100 into consideration, and then an active device process 120 and a wiring process 121 are selected to determine a circuit design 103. Whether the designed circuit configuration satisfies the function circuit specification 101 is determined. The circuit design 103 processes are repeated, until a desired characteristic is obtained. Thereafter, an actual circuit pattern is designed 104. A photo mask 105, required for a device process 122 and a wiring process 123, is prepared and then an IC is manufactured by the device process 122 and wiring process 123 to manufacture a monolithic IC on a semiconductor substrate. Thereafter, an on-wafer evaluation 107 is executed and the chip is assembled on a mount substrate 108 and a test and an evaluation are re-executed 109. The monolithic IC is completed (and delivered) 111 after making a reliability evaluation 110.
