A split-body Super Junction FET is made using only seven masks. Thin oxide is disposed on an upper semiconductor surface of a super junction charge compensation region. A polysilicon gate is disposed on the thin oxide. An ILD (InterLayer Dielectric) layer is disposed on the upper surface of the thin oxide so that the ILD layer covers the polysilicon gate. A gate bus line metal structure and a field plate metal structure are disposed on the upper surface of the ILD. A portion of the upper surface of the ILD extends from the gate bus line metal, laterally over floating rings, and to the field plate metal. This portion of the upper surface of the ILD layer is substantially planar where the ILD layer passes over the floating rings. The field plate metal structure, a polysilicon feature, and a diffusion region together form a stepped depletion layer field plate structure.
