Zusammenfassung:A semiconductor device (400A) includes a device body (400), a gate pad (412) and a gate signal distribution runner. The device body (400) includes a plurality of parallel cells and the gate pad (412) is located on a top surface of the device body (400) adjacent a corner of the device body (400). The gate signal distribution runner includes a peripheral gate signal distribution runner (413) extending around the periphery of the device body (400) from the gate pad (412) and a diagonal gate signal distribution runner (414) extending diagonally across the device body (400) from the gate pad (412). The gate signal distribution runner (413) provides a gate signal to a gate of each of the plurality of parallel cells.
