US Patent 7999197 Dual sided electronic module

A method for making a dual sided electronic module. A substrate has a first surface that is substantially parallel to a second surface. The second surface forms a cavity extending into an interior portion of the substrate. The substrate has at least one through hole connecting the cavity to the first surface. A first component is mounted with respect to the first surface, and a second component is mounted at least partially within the cavity. An encapsulant is applied to the first surface and through the at least one through hole into the cavity about the second component.
