inserting an electronic component into the void, the electronic component having a first segment placed into the first section of the void, and a second segment placed in the second section of the void;
placing a support seal in the second section of the void such that the support seal supports and maintains the electronic component in a fixed position in the void;
closing the low pressure mold around the frame;
injecting a hot melt material into the low pressure mold and inside the first section of the void to encapsulate the first segment of the electronic component in the first section of the void, the support seal limiting the flow of the hot melt material into the second section of the void;
opening the low pressure mold; and
