| 1. A method of making a high-density circuit module comprising the steps of:
(a) placing first and second CSPs in non-contiguous positions on a flex circuit such that a first set of CSP contacts on a
bottom major surface of the first CSP and a second set of CSP contacts on a bottom major surface of the second CSP are both
connected to respective ones of a plurality of flex contacts;
(b) fixing at least one thermally conductive radiating form standard element at least partially along a lateral perimeter
of at least one of the first and second CSPs;
(c) fixing a heat spreader form standard element on a top major surface of the first CSP and in thermally conductive contact
with the at least one thermally conductive radiating form standard element;
(d) folding the flex circuit so that a top major surface of the second CSP is adjacent to the heat spreader form standard
element.
