Abstract
A semiconductor device is proposed. The semiconductor device includes a plurality of trenches extending into in a semiconductor body from a first main surface. A first group of the plurality of trenches includes a gate electrode. A second group of the plurality of trenches includes a source electrode. A third group of the plurality of trenches includes an auxiliary electrode. The source electrode is electrically coupled to a source contact area via a source wiring line and the auxiliary electrode. The source wiring line and the auxiliary electrode are electrically connected in series between the source contact area and the source electrode.
