Abstract

A semiconductor device comprising a plurality of cells comprising cells of a first group, a second group and a third group is provided. The cell of the first group comprises a first power supply wiring for supplying a first potential, is located between the two cells of the third group and separated therefrom in a row direction by a distance, and supplies the first potential to the cells of the second group via a wiring on a front-side of the substrate. At least one of the two cells of the third group comprises a second power supply wiring for supplying a second potential having a polarity is opposite the first potential or being a ground. A third power supply wiring on a backside of a substrate supplies the first potential. The first power supply wiring comprises a via coupled to the third power supply wiring.
