Classification: CPC H  G | IPC G  H

Claim 0:
1. A semiconductor integrated circuit device comprising a standard cell, wherein
the standard cell includes
N power supply lines (where N is an integer equal to or greater than three) including at least one first power supply line supplying a first power supply potential and at least one second power supply line supplying a second power supply potential, the first and second power supply lines extending in a first direction, and being alternately arranged in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and
M height regions (where M=N−1) each sandwiched between one of the at least one first power line and one of the at least one second power line, and
a plurality of flip-flop circuits each operating in response to one or more common signals,

in each of first height regions, which are at least two of the M height regions, a metal interconnect for a supply path for a first common signal, which is one of the common signals, is arranged and connected to at least two of the flip-flop circuits, the metal interconnect extending in the first direction.
