A semiconductor integrated circuit designing method of the invention comprises (a) a step of determining the layout of a semiconductor integrated circuit, (b) a step of computing the computation value of a characteristic of the semiconductor integrated circuit, (c) a step of determining the margin of the characteristic on the basis of the layout, and (d) a step of detecting an error in the layout on the basis of the computation value and the margin. According to the semiconductor integrated circuit designing method, a margin is optimized by determining the margin according to the layout of a semiconductor integrated circuit and thereby the increase of the number of design man-hours to be caused by an excessive margin is prevented.
