Embodiments of the invention include multi-die package and methods of making such multi-die packages. In an embodiment a mold layer has a first surface and a second surface that is opposite from the first surface. One or more first electrical components that each have a solderable terminal that is oriented to face the first surface of the mold layer. The mold layer may also have one or more second electrical components that each have a second type of terminal that is oriented to face the second surface of the mold layer. Embodiments may also include one or more conductive through vias formed between the first surface of the mold layer and the second surface of the mold layer. Accordingly an electrical connection may be made from the second surface of the mold layer to the first electrical components that are oriented to face the first surface of the mold layer.
