Abstract

A semiconductor device and its manufacturing process are provided that are capable of designing the intended delay with high precision in just a few steps.The semiconductor device fabrication method disclosed herein arranges several circuits on one plane and connects a wiring system to each, comprising: a placement step of arranging a digital circuit operating on the basis of timing signals and a delay circuit configured with several delay paths having different input / output delay amounts, wherein one of the several delay paths can be selected by a selection signal; a wiring step of connecting the output of the delay circuit so that it becomes the timing signal of the digital circuit; and a delay setting step of selecting one of the several delay paths by connecting a predetermined voltage as the selection signal and selecting the delay amount so that the input / output timing of the digital circuit satisfies predetermined conditions.
