Patent ID: 6928726

Claim:
A method of forming an embedded component in a substrate assembly, comprising the steps of: applying a first conductive layer on a first carrier; applying a first adhesive layer on the first conductive layer; placing a pre-processed substrate on the first adhesive layer, wherein the pre-processed substrate includes at least a via; placing the embedded component in the via, wherein the embedded component includes at least two conductive terminals; applying a second adhesive layer on at least portions of the pre-processed substrate and above at least portions of the embedded component; applying a second conductive layer on the second adhesive layer; placing a second carrier on the second conductive layer, and biasing the first and second carriers towards each other to create the substrate assembly having the embedded component between the first and second conductive layers such that adhesive from the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer flows into the via around the embedded component.
