A method of manufacturing a trench power MOSFET device with improved UIS performance and a high avalanche breakdown voltage is disclosed. The method includes performing a first etching of the epitaxial layer to form an active trench with an initial depth in an active area of the semiconductor substrate and a termination trench with a desired depth in a termination area of the semiconductor substrate, wherein the initial depth of the active trench is smaller than the desired depth of the termination trench and performing a second etching to increase the depth of the active trench to a desired depth wherein a depth difference between the desired depth of the active trench and the desired depth of the termination trench is smaller than a depth difference between the initial depth of the active trench and the desired depth of the termination trench.
