Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor body having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. A transistor structure is formed is the semiconductor body. A trench structure extends from the first surface into the semiconductor body. An electrostatic discharge protection structure is accommodated in the trench structure. The electrostatic discharge protection structure includes a first terminal region and a second terminal region. A source contact structure at the first surface is electrically connected to source regions of the transistor structure and to the first terminal region. A gate contact structure at the first surface is electrically connected to a gate electrode of the transistor structure and to the second terminal region.

Claim (Index 15):
The semiconductor device of  claim 1 , further comprising an isolation layer on the first surface, wherein the source contact structure is formed on the isolation layer and is electrically coupled to the first terminal region of the electrostatic discharge protection structure via a first electric contact structure, and wherein the gate contact structure is formed on the isolation layer and is electrically coupled to the second terminal region of the electrostatic discharge protection structure via a second electric contact structure.
