The present invention provides a technique for determining the circuit configuration and device structure that meet required specifications in a short time. A device design support method includes: a step (S2) of receiving an input of specifications of a sensor, and extracting the circuit configuration and device specification range corresponding to the received specifications of the sensor, by referring to a circuit design database in which the circuit configuration configuring the sensor, the range of the specifications of the device configuring the sensor, and the specifications of the sensor are associated with each other; and a step (S3) of extracting the device structure corresponding to the extracted device specification range by referring to a device design database in which the specifications of the device and the structure of the device are associated with each other.
