A process of forming the surface finish is also disclosed. An electronic package is also disclosed that uses the surface finish on the wire-bonding substrate. A method of assembling an electronic package is also disclosed that includes the surface finish on the wire-bonding substrate. A computing system is also described that includes the surface finish on the wire-bonding substrate.
