Electroplated solder terminal
 A process for an improved solder terminal is disclosed. The improved solder terminal is made of a bottom metallic adhesion layer, a CrCu intermediate layer on top of the adhesion layer, a solder bonding layer above the CrCu layer and a solder top layer. The adhesion layer is either TiW or TiN. A process for fabricating an improved terminal metal consists of depositing an adhesive metallic layer, a layer of CrCu over the adhesive layer and a layer of solder bonding material, over which a solder layer is formed in selective regions and the underlying layers are etched using solder regions as a mask.
