A cover for an electronic package is manufactured by placing an optical insert, having opposite faces and configured to allow light radiation to pass therethrough, between two opposite faces of a cavity of a mold in a position such that said optical faces of the optical insert make contact with said opposite faces of the cavity of the mold. A coating material is injected into the cavity and around the optical insert. The coating material is set to obtain a substrate that is overmolded around the optical insert so as to produce the cover. An electronic package includes an electronic chip mounted to a support substrate with the cover formed by the overmolded substrate mounted to the support substrate.

A conductive member module has a pair of conductive members formed in a plate shape and facing each other, and a sealing part. The conductive member module is produced by performing an accommodation step, a sealing step, and an extraction step. In the accommodation step, the two individual conductive members are sandwiched in the facing orientation thereof by outer support members abutting outer surfaces of the conductive members, and inner support members abutting inner surfaces of the conductive members. Outer recesses are formed in the outer surfaces by the outer support members, and inner recesses are formed in the inner surfaces by the inner support members. The outer recesses are deeper in the Z direction than the inner recesses.
