Semiconductor device including first gate electrode and second gate electrode

A semiconductor device includes a drift region of a first conductivity type in a semiconductor body having a first main surface, and a body region of a second conductivity type between the drift region and the first main surface. Trenches extend into the semiconductor body from the first main surface and pattern the semiconductor body into mesas including a first mesa between first and second trenches, and a second mesa between second and third trenches. An electrode in the first trench is one electrode out of an electrode group of an electrode electrically coupled to a first gate driver output, an electrode electrically coupled to a second gate driver output, and an electrode electrically connected to a first load contact. An electrode in the second trench is another electrode out the electrode group, and an electrode in the third trench is a remaining electrode out of the electrode group.
