A semiconductor package is disclosed. The package includes a leadframe having drain, source and gate leads, and a semiconductor die coupled to the leadframe, the semiconductor die having a plurality of metallized source contacts. A bridged source plate interconnection has a bridge portion, valley portions disposed on either side of the bridge portion, plane portions disposed on either side of the valley portions and the bridge portion, and a connection portion depending from one of the plane portions, the bridged source plate interconnection connecting the source lead with the plurality of metallized source contacts. The bridge portion is disposed in a plane above the plane of the valley portions while the plane portions are disposed in a plane intermediate the plane of the bridge portion and the plane of the valley portions.
