Title: Method and device for a high temperature vacuum-safe solder stop utilizing laser processing of solderable surfaces for an electronic module assembly

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1531819

A process for manufacturing an electronic component having attaches includes providing a first component having a first attach, forming trenches on a portion of the first attach with a laser to form a solder stop, and providing a second component comprising a second attach. The process further includes providing solder between the first attach and the second attach to form a connection between the first component and the second component, where the trenches contain the solder to a usable area. A device produced by the process is disclosed as well.
