A merged device is that comprises a plurality of MOSFET cells and a plurality of Schottky rectifier cells, as well as a method of designing and making the same. According to an embodiment of the invention, the MOSFET cells comprise: (a) a source region of first conductivity type formed within an upper portion of a semiconductor region, (b) a body region of second conductivity type formed within a middle portion of the semiconductor region, (c) a drain region of first conductivity type formed within a lower portion of the semiconductor region, and (d) a gate region provided adjacent the source region, the body region, and the drain region. The Schottky diode cells in this embodiment are disposed within a trench network and comprise a conductor portion in Schottky rectifying contact with the lower portion of the semiconductor region. At least one MOSFET cell gate region is positioned along a sidewall of the trench network and adjacent at least one Schottky diode cell in this embodiment. |
