Abstract
A substrate comprising a plurality of layers, a first side and a second side; and a via extending through the substrate from the first side to the second side. The via comprises:a first substrate via extending through a first layer of the plurality of layers, the first substrate via having a first cross-sectional area; a first capture pad disposed under the first substrate via, wherein the first capture pad physically contacts the first substrate via; a second substrate via extending through a second layer of the plurality of layers, the second substrate via physically contacting the first capture pad, the second substrate via having a second cross-sectional area that is greater than the first cross-sectional area; and a second thermal and electrical contact pad disposed under the second dielectric layer, wherein the second contact pad physically contacts the second substrate via.
