Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a transistor having macro cells. A plurality of the macro cells include a first macro cell and a second macro cell. Each first and second macro cell includes trenches formed in a first main surface of a semiconductor substrate. The trenches pattern the semiconductor substrate into mesas and include a conductive trench, with a conductive material in the conductive trench being electrically connected to a terminal. A majority of all trenches of the first macro cell exclusively run in a first direction. A majority of all trenches of the second macro cell exclusively run in a second direction different from the first direction. At least one first macro cell is arranged adjacent to at least one second macro cell.
