Abstract
A method of self packaging an integrated circuit chip on a printed circuit board where conductive leads form an electrical connection with interconnect leads on the printed circuit board. A centering frame placed on the printed circuit board serves to align the leads. A cooling cap which dissipates heat from the integrated circuit chip is placed over the centering frame and integrated circuit chip. In one embodiment, the leads form a pressure fit and the cooling cap forces the pressure-fit electrical connections. In another embodiment, the leads make rubbing contact with each other.
