Abstract
An integrated circuit chip stack includes a main integrated circuit chip and at least one auxiliary integrated circuit chip. The main integrated circuit chip contains circuit components to be protected. The auxiliary integrated circuit chip is mounted to a surface of the main integrated circuit chip and includes a metal plane connected to ground located opposite the circuit components to be protected. The auxiliary integrated circuit chip further includes at least one insulated conductive track forming a tight pattern opposite the circuit components to be protected. A detection circuit is connected to the at least one conductive track and is configured to detect interruption of the at least one insulated conductive track.
