SEMICONDUCTOR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT

摘要

PURPOSE:To obtain a semiconductor integrated circuit wherein the clock skew difference between individual clock nets affected by functional elements added to the individual clock nets is reduced sharply and the system design of a circuit is made easy. CONSTITUTION:A semiconductor integrated circuit 1 is constituted of the following: a clock driver 2; and a clock network 3 formed of a group composed of a plurality of clock nets 31 to 34 in which a clock signal from the clock driver 2 is distributed. In the semiconductor circuit, in order to reduce a clock skew between the clock nets, at least one dummy element 8 is added to at least one selected clock net in addition to prescribed functional elements which are added normally to the clock nets.
