## Abstract

In one example, an electronic device includes a first substrate, an electronic component disposed over a side of the first substrate, and a vertical interconnect structure coupled to the side of the first substrate. The vertical interconnect structure comprises a first metallic core structure coupled to the side of the first substrate, a second metallic core structure coupled to the first metallic core structure, and a fusible material coupling the first metallic core structure with the second metallic core structure. The fusible material also couples the first metallic core structure to the first substrate. A second substrate can be disposed over the electronic component and the vertical interconnect structure. The second metallic core structure of the vertical interconnect structure can be coupled to the second substrate by the fusible material. An encapsulant can be disposed over the electronic component. Other examples and related methods are also disclosed herein.
