    Abstract: A method of designing a layout of an integrated circuit (IC) includes: preparing a standard cell library that stores a first standard cell and a second standard cell, each of the first standard cell and the second standard cell including a plurality of conductive lines that extend in a first direction, placing the first standard cell and the second standard cell to be adjacent to each other in a first boundary parallel to the plurality of conductive lines, and generating a decoupling capacitor by using at least one first conductive line of the plurality of conductive lines when a same voltage is applied to a first pattern adjacent to the first boundary in the first standard cell and a second pattern adjacent to the first boundary in the second standard cell, the at least one first conductive line being adjacent to the first boundary.
