Abstract
A standard cell library and a method of using the same may include information regarding a plurality of standard cells stored on a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, wherein at least one of the plurality of standard cells includes a pin through which an input signal or an output signal of the at least one standard cell passes and including first and second regions perpendicular to a stack direction. When the via is disposed in the pin, the second region can provide a resistance value of the via smaller than that of the first region. The standard cell library may further include marker information corresponding to the second region.
