Abstract
An interconnect elementcan include a dielectric layerhaving a top faceand a bottom faceremote from the top face, a first metal layer defining a plane extending along the bottom face and a second metal layer extending along the top face. One of the first or second metal layers, or both, can include a plurality of conductive traces. A plurality of conductive protrusionscan extend upwardly from the plane defined by the first metal layerthrough the dielectric layer. The conductive protrusionscan have top surfacesat a first heightabove the first metal layerwhich may be more than 50% of a height of the dielectric layer. A plurality of conductive viascan extend from the top surfacesof the protrusionsto connect the protrusionswith the second metal layer.
