A thin film magnet (TFM) three-dimensional (3D) inductor structure may include a substrate with conductive vias extending through the substrate. The TFM 3D inductor structure may also include a magnetic thin film layer on at least sidewalls of the conductive vias and on a first side and an opposing second side of the substrate. The TFM 3D inductor structure may further include a first conductive trace directly on the magnetic thin film layer on the first side of the substrate and electrically coupling to at least one of the conductive vias. The TFM 3D inductor structure also includes a second conductive trace directly on the magnetic thin film layer on the second side of the substrate and coupled to at least one of the conductive vias.
