Repeat after me.
Skylake and Kabylake U series (15w cpus) are the same exact cpus as Skylake and Kabylake Y series (4.5w cpus). They are literally from the same silicon wafer, aka they are made from the same sand, where we take this sand, make it into a wafer, and then via the power of light we etch a cpu / soc onto the wafer.
A package is not the same thing as the silicon wafer. While the silicon is sand, a package is what surrounds the sand and is made out of plastic and metal wires. Those metal wires being either pins for socketed cpus, or bga for cpus that are more delicate and smaller and they use a machine to solder the cpu to the motherboard at a factory instead of you doing it later
Put simply the package is what connects the CPU to the motherboard, it is the in between layer.

So literally Intel is using the same silicon, the same wafer, the same sand etched with light in the same cpus, from all the way down to 3.5 watts (a 4.5 watt Skylake or Kabylake Y series with cTDP down) to 25 watts (a 15 watt Skylake or Kabylake U series with cTDP up)
So currently with Kabylake here are the tdp options
3.5w, 4.5w, 6.0w, 7.0 watts which uses the Kabylake Y series package
7.5w, 10.0w, 15.0w, 25.0w which uses the Kayblake U series package.
So why have two different packages? Kabylake Y series package is physically smaller, more expensive to make, and is more energy efficient for they turned off some features on the integrated platform controller hub. On the <30 watt tdp cpus the PCH is not part of the motherboard but part of the SOC, and with the Y series you have less options, it has 2 less pcie express lanes (to save power) and only up to 2 sata ports to save power. Now the PCH for the Y series which is on a different package that takes up more space you have 2 more pci express lanes, and an extra sata port. Note though this integrated into the SoC has far less pci express lanes than any intel cpu with a > 35 watt or higher tdp whether laptop, dekstop, or embedded. Instead of dealing with 10, 12, we are dealing with 20 pcie express lanes. (There are far more on the server / workstation cpus with Skylake-X which can have up to 44 pci express lanes on the most expensive skus but some skus only have 28 lanes.)

So to sum it up, think of it like this.
Silicon as in Sand as in CPU the brain
Package as in Plastic with Metal Wires, as in Spinal Cord that connects the CPU the brain to the motherboard as in everything else. Spinal Cord still very important, but the brain is far more complicated and is the main thing inside of a computer.
