Layout to reduce current crowding at endpoints. At least one example is a semiconductor device comprising: an emitter region defining an inner boundary in the shape of an obround with parallel sides, and the obround having hemispherical ends each having a radius; a base region having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and base length, the base region disposed within the obround with the base length parallel to and centered between the parallel sides, the first end spaced apart from the first hemispherical end by a first gap greater than the radius, and the second end spaced apart from the second hemispherical ends by a second gap greater than the radius.
