Abstract
A chip package comprises: an IC substrate, wherein the IC substrate comprises at least one electronic device; a photovoltaic cell, wherein the photovoltaic cell generates an electrical current when exposed to light; a light blocking shield, wherein the light blocking shield prevents light from striking the photovoltaic cell only while the chip package is mounted on a circuit board, and wherein the light blocking shield ceases to prevent light from striking the photovoltaic cell upon the chip package being dismounted from the circuit board; and a disabling logic, wherein the electrical current, which is generated by the photovoltaic cell in response to the chip package being dismounted from the circuit board, causes the disabling logic to disable the IC substrate.
