In one general aspect, an apparatus can include a first trench disposed in a semiconductor region and including a gate electrode and a second trench disposed in the semiconductor region. The apparatus can include a mesa region disposed between the first trench and the second trench. The apparatus can include a source region segment of a first conductivity type disposed in a first side of the mesa region where the source region segment is included in a plurality of source region segments and where the plurality of source region segments are aligned along the longitudinal axis. The apparatus can include a body region segment of a second conductivity type disposed in a second side of the mesa region opposite the first side of the mesa region and having a portion disposed above the source region segment where the body region segment is included in a plurality of body region segments.
