Abstract
A trench metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) device comprises an active cell area including a plurality of superjunction trench power MOSFETs formed in an epitaxial layer. Each MOSFET includes source and body regions and a contact trench formed between first and second gate trenches. A region of the epitaxial layer between the gate trenches extends to the top surface of the epitaxial layer. An insulated gate electrode is formed in each gate trench. At least a portion of the contact trench extends from a top surface of the epitaxial layer to a depth that is shallower than the bottom of the body region.
