And one more thing to add - once I've seen internals of well known 
desktop analog synthesizer, and the only tempco was placed in the middle 
of the PCB, between voices. It was popular Panasonic PTC and it was used 
to tell the micro how to alter tuning scales on the fly. So in this case 
the term "encasing" referred to entire synth.
