Abstract
A power semiconductor device is disclosed. In one example, the device comprises a semiconductor body coupled to a first load terminal and a second load terminal and comprising a drift region configured to conduct a load current between said terminals. The drift region comprises dopants of a first conductivity type. A source region is arranged in electrical contact with the first load terminal and comprises dopants of the first conductivity type. A channel region comprises dopants of a second conductivity. At least one power unit cell that includes at least one first type trench. The at least one power unit cell further includes a first mesa zone and a second mesa zone of the semiconductor body.
