PURPOSE: To eliminate such a problem that the data quantity is remarkably increased because the dummy patterns of a large quantity are generated collectively during the preparation of design data and synthesized. CONSTITUTION: This aligning method of semiconductor integrated circuit includes a step by which aligning pattern data per a specified unit area is extracted from aligning pattern data inputted in an aligning device, and the aligning pattern data extracted and a dummy pattern data for every specified unit area are merged and the aligning processing of the aligning pattern data and the dummy pattern data merged is executed for every area. |
