Abstract
An electronic module assembly (50) has a bendable base plate (52) upon which circuit components (76) are mounted. A module enclosure device (56) mates with the base plate and has an integrally formed, non-removable support arm (96). During assembly, the base plate (52) is bent around the support arm (96) in a 'C' shape. Thus formed, the base plate (52) and the module enclosure device (56) form an internal cavity that holds the circuit components (76).
