Abstract
A semiconductor device may have an active device region containing a plurality of active devices and a termination structure that surrounds the active device region. The termination structure includes a first conductive region that surrounds the active device region, an insulator region that surrounds the first conductive region, and a second conductive region that surrounds the first conductive region and the insulator region. The active device region and termination structure are formed into a semiconductor material of a first conductivity type. The first conductive region is electrically connected to a gate metal and the second conductive region is connected to a drain metal.
