The embodiments described above provide enlarged overlapping surface areas of bonding structures between a package and a bonding substrate. By using elongated bonding structures on either the package and/or the bonding substrate and by orienting such bonding structures, the bonding structures are designed to withstand bonding stress caused by thermal cycling to reduce cold joints.

An embedded layered inductor is provided that includes a first inductor layer and a second inductor layer coupled to the first inductor layer. The first inductor layer comprises a patterned metal layer that may also be patterned to form pads. The second inductor layer comprises metal deposited in a dielectric layer adjacent the patterned metal layer.

Generally discussed herein are systems, methods, and apparatuses that include conductive pillars that are about co-planar. According to an example, a technique can include growing conductive pillars on respective exposed landing pads of a substrate, situating molding material around and on the grown conductive pillars, removing, simultaneously, a portion of the grown conductive pillars and the molding material to make the grown conductive pillars and the molding material about planar, and electrically coupling a die to the conductive pillars.
