Abstract:
An electronic circuit housing comprising:a first layer having a cavity within which a discrete device is embedded, wherein a non-conductive material is deposited in the cavity over the discrete device, and the first layer is oriented along a horizontal plane; and one or more trench vias located in the non-conductive material substantially over the discrete device so that a height of the one or more trench vias extends from a top surface of the first layer to a top surface of the discrete device, and the one or more trench vias make electrical contact with one or more terminals of the discrete device, wherein each of the one or more trench vias is formed from a conductive material, and each of the one or more trench vias has a roughly rectangular shape, in the horizontal plane, with a length that is at least twice a width of each of the one or more trench vias.
