Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein include electronic packages. In an embodiment, an electronic package comprises a package substrate, a first die electrically coupled to the package substrate, and a mold layer over the package substrate and around the first die. In an embodiment, the electronic package further comprises a through mold opening through the mold layer, and a through mold interconnect (TMI) in the through mold opening, wherein a center of the TMI is offset from a center of the through mold opening.
