ABSTRACT:
A basic cell placed in a semiconductor device comprises a via contact placed on a wiring grid having a pitch narrower than a pitch between a contact placed in a source region and a contact placed in a drain region of a transistor in a basic cell, and a wiring layer connected to the via contact, being used as a source terminal, a drain terminal, and a gate terminal of the transistor.
