Abstract
Plastic casings are simultaneously molded onto several PCBAs attached to a carrier in a closely-spaced arrangement. All edges of each PCBA have integral connecting segments that extend through grooves formed in the associated mold assembly, and are pinched when the molds assembly is closed to precisely and reliably position the PCBA inside of an associated cavity during the molding process. In one embodiment, the PCB substrate is positioned in a bent arrangement to accommodate the use of inexpensive memory devices. Write-protect switches are provided.
