    Abstract: A method of designing a semiconductor circuit using a circuit simulation tool executed by a computer includes calculating power consumptions of elements of the semiconductor circuit by use of the circuit simulation tool. A thermal netlist is created about the semiconductor circuit, based on the power consumptions and geometry information of each of the elements. A simulation of the semiconductor circuit is performed with the thermal netlist using the circuit simulation tool to detect a temperature of each of the elements. The thermal netlist includes thermal capacitance information of each of the elements.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a semiconductor device including a substrate with first and second regions adjacent to each other in a first direction, and first to third gate electrodes extending from the first region toward the second region. Each of the first and second regions includes a PMOSFET region and an NMOSFET region. The first to third gate electrodes extend in the first direction and are sequentially arranged in a second direction different from the first direction. The first and third gate electrodes are supplied with a first signal. The second gate electrode is supplied with a second signal that is an inverted signal of the first signal. The first gate electrode includes a first gate of the first region and a first gate of the second region. The first gates are aligned and connected with each other in the first direction.
