Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a transistor. The transistor includes a drift region of a first conductivity type in a semiconductor substrate having a first main surface, a body region of a second conductivity type between the drift region and the first main surface, and a plurality of trenches in the first main surface and patterning the semiconductor substrate into a plurality of mesas including a first mesa and a dummy mesa. The plurality of trenches includes at least one active trench. The first mesa is arranged at a first side of the active trench, and the dummy mesa is arranged at a second side of the active trench. A gate electrode is arranged in the active trench, and a source region of the first conductivity type is in the first mesa. A one-sided channel of the transistor is configured to be formed in the first mesa.
