1. A process for manufacturing an electronic component having attaches comprising:
- 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;
providing a second component comprising a second attach; and
providing solder between the first attach and the second attach to form a connection between the first component and the second component,wherein the trenches are arranged and configured such that the providing solder between the first attach and the second attach forms a fillet between the first attach and the second attach,wherein the trenches are configured to impede solder wetting; and
wherein the trenches comprise a plurality of parallel boundary trenches and at least one additional trench arranged parallel and between the plurality of boundary trenches.

Abstract
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.
