Before Au-plating onto the metallic surface of an electronic part, Ni-plating and then Co-plating are applied to form a primer coating for Au-plating. But in the steps of Ni and Co-platings, hydrogen gas produced during the plating is occluded into a plating layer. On the other hand, when a pellet connected onto an Au-plated metal, an Au-Si alloy is formed, but hydrogen gas in the plating layer remains as voids in the Au-Si alloy during a subsequent heating step of the electronic part, resulting in a serious defect. This invention of a plating method is characterized by annealing after Au-plating of an electronic part to eliminate the residual gas.
