Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques for a printed circuit board (PCB) with a recess to accommodate discrete components of a package attachable to the PCB, in accordance with some embodiments. In one embodiment, a PCB may include a recess disposed in at least a portion of the PCB, to receive at least a portion of a package. The package may be attachable to the PCB via a plurality of connectors. The connectors may be disposed on a side of the package that faces the PCB. The portion of the package may include one or more discrete components disposed on the side of the package that faces the PCB. The recess may have a depth to accommodate those discrete components that have a height that is greater than a height of the connectors. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
