A system for soldering electronic components capable of withstanding high temperature applications. A solder having a composition in the range between 83 and 87% lead, between 8.5 and 11.5% antimony, and the balance of tin provides superior results. The solder uniquely provides a sufficiently low melting point to enable mass flow without destruction of plastic package parts, and a sufficiently high melting point to achieve 200 degrees C. operation. Good mechanical strength is achieved while providing sufficient creep to permit differential expansion between components and a printed wiring board. A heavy solder layer is coated on a printed wiring board and is oxidized to generate a thin solderable layer. Manufacture of the circuit board can be performed with conventional techniques such as wave soldering, hand soldering, solder printing, solder dispensing, and solder pre-forms.
