A semiconductor device having cells is provided, with each cell including a gate. The device includes a gate pad, a gate busbar and gate lines. The busbar connects the gate pad to the gate lines, the gate lines connect the gate busbar to the gates of the cells, and each of the gate lines is disposed along a first axis. The gate busbar includes first portions each disposed along a second axis, and the second axis intersects with the first axis. The first portions are spaced apart from each other to divide the semiconductor device into emitter segments. Lengths of the emitter segments along the first axis changes with distances of the segments from the gate pad, so that gate signals arriving at the gates of the cells from the gate pad via the gate busbar and the gate lines are substantially consistent.
