An electronic module assembly including a via spanning multiple layers in a wafer based module is described. The electronic module assembly can include a first layer deposited upon a substrate, a second layer deposited on a top surface of the first layer, and the via spanning multiple layers. The via can include a first bottom that is formed on a top surface of the first layer and a first sidewall that upstands from the first bottom and extending at least through the second layer.

An electronics module assembly is described herein that packages dies using a universal cavity wafer that is independent of electronics module design. In one embodiment, the electronics module assembly can include a cavity wafer having a single frontside cavity that extends over a majority of a frontside surface area of the cavity wafer and a plurality of fillports. The assembly can also include at least one group of dies placed in the frontside cavity and encapsulant that secures the position of the at least one group of dies relative to the cavity wafer. Further, a layer of the encapsulant can cover a backside of the cavity wafer.
