A transistor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a first major surface, a cell field, and an edge termination region laterally surrounding the cell field. The cell field includes elongate trenches that extend from the first major surface into the semiconductor substrate and that are positioned substantially parallel to one another such that one or more inner elongate trenches are arranged between two outermost elongate trenches and elongate mesas, each elongate mesa being formed between neighbouring elongate trenches. The elongate mesas include a drift region, a body region on the drift region and a source region on the body region. In a top view, one or both of the outermost elongate trenches has a different contour from the one or more inner elongate trenches.

Transistor device

The application relates to a semiconductor die including a device in an active area of the die. The device includes a field electrode region formed in a field electrode trench extending vertically into a semiconductor body. The field electrode region includes a first and a second field electrode stacked vertically above each other in the field electrode trench. An edge termination structure laterally between the active area and a lateral edge region of the die includes a first and a second shield electrode arranged laterally consecutive between the active area and the lateral edge region to stepwise decrease an electrical potential between the edge region and the active area.
