Abstract:
A semiconductor device has a semiconductor substrate with a plurality of transistor cell regions. Each transistor cell region includes a plurality of trenches disposed in the semiconductor substrate, a well region between the plurality of trenches, and a source region of a MOSFET in the well region. A source electrode of the MOSFET is in contact with a top surface of the source region in each of the plurality of transistor cell regions. The source electrode is in contact with a part of a main surface of the semiconductor substrate so as to form a Schottky junction in a Schottky cell region disposed between the plurality of transistor cell regions. The Schottky junction is lower than a portion of the main surface between the Schottky junction and one of the transistor cell regions.
