Abstract:
A graphic data of a first wiring in a first area of a semiconductor wafer may be extracted, which may correspond to a semiconductor chip forming area. The first area may be surrounded by a scribed area of the semiconductor wafer. The first area includes a second area bounded with the scribed area. The second area has a second distance from a boundary between the semiconductor chip forming area and the scribed area to a boundary between the first area and the second area. A first dummy pattern in the first area is laid out to have at least a first distance from the first wiring. A second dummy pattern in the second area is laid out to have at least the first distance from the first wiring and at least a third distance from the first dummy pattern.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of layout of pattern, comprising:\n forming a wiring layer over a semiconductor substrate to extend in a first direction from a top view, the wiring layer having a first width in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; forming a plurality of first dummy patterns over the semiconductor substrate in a same level as the wiring layer,\n where the plurality of first dummy patterns are arranged repeatedly in a third direction that is different from the second direction, and \n where each of the plurality of the first dummy patterns has a second length and a second width, wherein the second length is equal to or bigger than the second width; and \n forming a second dummy pattern over the semiconductor substrate in the same level as the wiring layer to be placed between the wiring layer and the plurality of first dummy patterns,\n wherein the second dummy pattern is positioned immediately adjacent to the wiring layer and the plurality of first dummy patterns, \n wherein the second dummy pattern extends in the first direction and having a third length in the first direction longer than the second length, and \n wherein the second dummy pattern has a third width in the second direction smaller than the second width.
