A trench semiconductor device includes a layer of semiconductor material, an exterior trench pattern formed in the layer of semiconductor material, and an interior trench pattern formed in the layer of semiconductor material, at least partially surrounded by the exterior trench pattern. The exterior trench pattern includes a plurality of exterior trench portions that are each lined with dielectric material and filled with conductive material, and the interior trench pattern includes a plurality of interior trench portions that are each lined with dielectric material and filled with conductive material.
