A stackable neo-layer comprising one or more embedded discrete electrical components is provided. A plurality of conductive traces, some of which terminate at a peripheral edge of the layer, are formed on sacrificial substrate in a series of process steps and discrete electrical components such as thick film components or wire bonded components are attached thereto. An under-bump metal process step is disclosed and provides for solder attachment at desired contact pad locations. The layer is encapsulated in a potting material and thinned to provide a thin, stackable layer. When assembled into a stack of layers, the electrically conductive traces terminating at the edge of the layer can be electrically connected by means of electroplating using a T-connect.
