An area of a semiconductor device having a FINFET can be reduced. The drain regions of an n-channel FINFET and a p-channel FINFET are extracted by two second local interconnects from a second Y gird between a gate electrode and a dummy gate adjacent thereto, to a third Y grid adjacent to the second Y gird. These second local interconnects are connected by a first local interconnect extending in the X direction in the third Y grid. According to such a cell layout, although the number of grids is increased by one because of the arrangement of the first local interconnect, the length in the X direction can be reduced. As a result, the cell area of the unit cell can be reduced while a space between the first and second local interconnects is secured.
