Microelectronic packages are disclosed. A microelectronic package may
include a substrate having first and second sides. Passive components may
be located on the first side of the substrate. Interconnects may also be
located on the first side of the substrate, and may be electrically
coupled with the passive components. Microelectronic components may be
located on the first side of the substrate and may be electrically
coupled with interconnects. The substrate may include an opening therein.
The opening may lead from the second side of the substrate toward the
first side of the substrate. A plurality of conductive paths may be at
least partially included in the opening. Each of the conductive paths may
lead from the second side of the substrate toward the first side of the
substrate to communicate electrical signals to interconnects. Methods of
making the packages and electronic devices including the packages are
also disclosed.
