An apparatus includes a substrate, one or more integrated circuit dies on the substrate, and a stiffener affixed to the substrate. One or more sections of the stiffener may includes a magnetic material. The apparatus further includes an inductive circuit element comprising one or more conductive structures wrapped around the magnetic material. In some examples where a first coil is wrapped around a first section of the stiffener, and a second coil is wrapped around a second section of the stiffener, current supplied to the first coil generates at the second coil a current that is further transmitted to the one or more semiconductor dies.
