In one example, an electronic device includes a substrate having an upper side, a lower side opposite to the upper side, a lateral side connecting the upper side to the lower side, and a conductive structure. An electronic component is coupled to the conductive structure at the upper side of the substrate. An encapsulant covers a lateral side of the electronic component and the upper side of the substrate and having an encapsulant top side and an encapsulant lateral side. The electronic device includes first metallic coating having a first metallic coating top side, a first metallic coating sidewall; and a first metallic coating thickness. The electronic device includes a second metallic coating having a second metallic coating thickness that is greater than the first metallic coating thickness. In the present example, the first metallic coating top side is over the encapsulant top side, the first metallic coating sidewall is over the encapsulant lateral side, and the second metallic coating is over the encapsulant top side. Other examples and related methods are also disclosed herein.

An apparatus includes a printed circuit board (PCB), a solder pad, a signal via, a plurality of metalized vias, and a waveguide. The PCB has a first surface opposite a second surface and includes a first metal layer, a second metal layer having a waveguide opening, and a PCB channel region from the waveguide opening in the second metal layer to the second surface. The solder pad is positioned on the first surface of the PCB over the channel region, and the signal via is coupled to the solder pad and a via pad in the second metal layer within the waveguide opening. The plurality of metalized vias extend from the first surface to the second surface of the PCB and form a boundary around the channel region. The waveguide is affixed to the waveguide opening in the second metal layer.
