The "Mounting Type" in electronic components refers to the method used to attach or connect a component to a circuit board or other substrate, such as through-hole, surface-mount, or panel mount.

refers to the protective housing that encases an electronic component, providing mechanical support, electrical connections, and thermal management.

The operating temperature is the range of ambient temperature within which a power supply, or any other electrical equipment, operate in. This ranges from a minimum operating temperature, to a peak or maximum operating temperature, outside which, the power supply may fail.

Parts can have many statuses as they progress through the configuration, analysis, review, and approval stages.

Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is a standardized rating that indicates the susceptibility of electronic components, particularly semiconductors, to moisture-induced damage during storage and the soldering process, defining the allowable exposure time to ambient conditions before they require special handling or baking to prevent failures

Voltage - Supply refers to the range of voltage levels that an electronic component or circuit is designed to operate with. It indicates the minimum and maximum supply voltage that can be applied for the device to function properly. Providing supply voltages outside this range can lead to malfunction, damage, or reduced performance. This parameter is critical for ensuring compatibility between different components in a circuit.

In electronic components, the parameter "Frequency" refers to the rate at which a signal oscillates or cycles within a given period of time. It is typically measured in Hertz (Hz) and represents how many times a signal completes a full cycle in one second. Frequency is a crucial aspect in electronic components as it determines the behavior and performance of various devices such as oscillators, filters, and communication systems. Understanding the frequency characteristics of components is essential for designing and analyzing electronic circuits to ensure proper functionality and compatibility with other components in a system.

Data Rate is defined as the amount of data transmitted during a specified time period over a network. It is the speed at which data is transferred from one device to another or between a peripheral device and the computer. It is generally measured in Mega bits per second(Mbps) or Mega bytes per second(MBps).

In electronic components, the parameter "Protocol" refers to a set of rules and standards that govern the communication between devices. It defines the format, timing, sequencing, and error checking methods for data exchange between different components or systems. Protocols ensure that devices can understand and interpret data correctly, enabling them to communicate effectively with each other. Common examples of protocols in electronics include USB, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, and Bluetooth, each with its own specifications for data transmission. Understanding and adhering to protocols is essential for ensuring compatibility and reliable communication between electronic devices.

Power Output in electronic components refers to the amount of electrical power that a device can deliver to a load. It is typically measured in watts and indicates the effectiveness of the component in converting electrical energy into usable work or signal. Power Output can vary based on the component's design, operating conditions, and intended application, making it a critical factor in the performance of amplifiers, power supplies, and other electronic devices. Understanding the Power Output helps in selecting appropriate components for specific applications to ensure efficiency and reliability.

The parameter "RF Family/Standard" in electronic components refers to the specific radio frequency (RF) technology or standard that the component complies with or is designed for. RF technology encompasses a wide range of frequencies used for wireless communication, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular networks, and more. Different RF standards dictate the frequency bands, modulation techniques, data rates, and other specifications for communication systems. Understanding the RF family/standard of a component is crucial for ensuring compatibility and optimal performance in RF applications.

Sensitivity in electronic components refers to the degree to which the output of a device responds to changes in input. It indicates how effectively a component translates a specific input signal into an observable output. High sensitivity means that even small variations in input can produce significant changes in output, making the device more responsive to signals. Sensitivity is crucial in applications where precise measurements or signal detection are required.

A serial interface is a communication interface between two digital systems that transmits data as a series of voltage pulses down a wire. Essentially, the serial interface encodes the bits of a binary number by their "temporal" location on a wire rather than their "spatial" location within a set of wires.

In electronic components, modulation refers to the process of varying one or more properties of a periodic waveform, known as the carrier signal, in order to encode information. This modulation technique is commonly used in communication systems to transmit data efficiently over long distances. By modulating the carrier signal, information such as audio, video, or data can be embedded onto the signal for transmission and then demodulated at the receiving end to retrieve the original information. There are various types of modulation techniques, including amplitude modulation (AM), frequency modulation (FM), and phase modulation (PM), each with its own advantages and applications in different communication systems.

RoHS means “Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances” in the “Hazardous Substances Directive” in electrical and electronic equipment.
