    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a mmWave transceiver and methods of forming such devices. In an embodiment, the mmWave transceiver includes an RF module. The RF module may include a package substrate, a plurality of antennas formed on the package substrate, and a die attached to a surface of the package substrate. In an embodiment, the mmWave transceiver may also include a mainboard mounted to the RF module with one or more solder balls. In an embodiment, a thermal feature is embedded within the mainboard, and the thermal feature is separated from the die by a thermal interface material (TIM) layer. According to an embodiment, the thermal features are slugs and/or vias. In an embodiment, the die compresses the TIM layer resulting in a TIM layer with minimal thickness.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe techniques for an IC package including a supporting layer having a first zone and a second zone. An electronic component is placed above the first zone of the supporting layer. An underfill material is formed above the first zone of the supporting layer, around or below the electronic component to support the electronic component. The second zone of the supporting layer includes a base area and multiple micro-pillars above the base area, where any two micro-pillars of the multiple micro-pillars are separated by a gap in between. The second zone has a hydrophobic surface including surfaces of the multiple micro-pillars and surfaces of the base area. The second zone is a keep out zone to prevent the underfill material from entering the second zone. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Embodiments include inductors and methods to form the inductors. An inductor includes a substrate layer that surrounds a magnetic layer, where the magnetic layer is embedded between the substrate layer. The inductor also includes a dielectric layer that surrounds the substrate and magnetic layers, where the dielectric layer fully embeds the substrate and magnetic layers. The inductor further includes a first conductive layer over the dielectric layer, a second conductive layer below the dielectric layer, and a plurality of plated-through-hole (PTH) vias in the dielectric and substrate layers. The PTH vias vertically extend from the first conductive layer to the second conductive layer, and the magnetic layer in between the PTH vias. The magnetic layer may have a thickness that is substantially equal to a thickness of the substrate layer, where the thickness of the magnetic layer is less than a thickness defined between the first and second conductive layers.
