The housing material plays a crucial role in providing physical protection, insulation, and environmental resistance to the electronic component. Common housing materials include plastics, metals, ceramics, and composites, each offering different levels of durability, heat resistance, and electrical properties. The choice of housing material is important in determining the overall performance, reliability, and longevity of the electronic component in various operating conditions.

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.

Semiconductor package is a carrier / shell used to contain and cover one or more semiconductor components or integrated circuits. The material of the shell can be metal, plastic, glass or ceramic.

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

Lead length refers to the distance from the body of an electronic component to the end of its leads or terminals. It is an important specification in component design and packaging, as it affects the ease of soldering, the overall fit within a circuit board, and the electrical performance. Longer leads can facilitate easier connections but may also introduce increased resistance or inductance in high-frequency applications. Proper lead length is crucial for ensuring reliable connections and optimal performance in electronic circuits.

In electronic components, the parameter "Diode Type" refers to the specific type or configuration of a diode, which is a semiconductor device that allows current to flow in one direction only. There are various types of diodes, each designed for specific applications and functions. Common diode types include rectifier diodes, zener diodes, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and Schottky diodes, among others. The diode type determines the diode's characteristics, such as forward voltage drop, reverse breakdown voltage, and maximum current rating, making it crucial for selecting the right diode for a particular circuit or application. Understanding the diode type is essential for ensuring proper functionality and performance in electronic circuits.

the angle at which a display can be viewed with acceptable visual performance.

the time taken for a circuit or measuring device, when subjected to a change in input signal, to change its state by a specified fraction of its total response to that change.

In electronics, when describing a voltage or current step function, rise time is the time taken by a signal to change from a specified low value to a specified high value.

Max Reverse Voltage (DC) refers to the maximum voltage that a semiconductor device, such as a diode, can withstand in the reverse bias direction without failing. Exceeding this voltage can lead to breakdown and potential damage to the component. It is a critical parameter in circuit design to ensure reliability and prevent failure when the device is subjected to reverse voltage conditions.

the relatively small electric current that flows through photosensitive devices such as a photomultiplier tube, photodiode, or charge-coupled device even when no photons are entering the device.

The parameter "Spectral Range" in electronic components refers to the range of frequencies or wavelengths within the electromagnetic spectrum that the component is designed to operate within or respond to. It indicates the specific range of electromagnetic radiation that the component can detect, transmit, or interact with effectively. Understanding the spectral range of an electronic component is crucial for ensuring its proper functionality and compatibility with the intended application or system. Different electronic components may have varying spectral ranges based on their design, materials used, and intended purpose.

Active Area in electronic components refers to the specific region where active functions occur within a device, such as a semiconductor. This area is critical for the operation of the component, often containing the elements responsible for amplification, switching, or signal processing. The size and characteristics of the Active Area can greatly influence the performance, efficiency, and power handling of the electronic component. It is a key parameter in the design and evaluation of integrated circuits and other electronic devices.

The parameter "Current - Dark (Typ)" in electronic components refers to the typical amount of current that flows through a component when it is in a dark or non-illuminated state. This parameter is commonly associated with optoelectronic devices such as photodiodes, phototransistors, and photovoltaic cells. The current generated in these devices in the absence of light is known as dark current, which can be caused by thermal effects or other factors. Understanding the dark current characteristics of a component is important for designing circuits and systems that rely on light detection or energy conversion.

Color - Enhanced is a parameter in electronic components that refers to a feature or characteristic of the component related to color display or enhancement. This parameter typically indicates that the component is designed to provide improved color accuracy, vibrancy, or clarity in visual displays. It may involve technologies such as color calibration, color gamut expansion, or color enhancement algorithms to ensure that the colors displayed by the component are more vivid and true to life. Overall, the "Color - Enhanced" parameter signifies that the electronic component is optimized for delivering high-quality and visually appealing color performance in applications such as displays, cameras, or other visual output devices.

Responsivity @ nm is a parameter used to describe the sensitivity of an electronic component, such as a photodetector or sensor, to light at a specific wavelength (nm represents nanometers, a unit of measurement for wavelength). It indicates how efficiently the component converts incident light at that particular wavelength into an electrical signal. A higher responsivity value at a specific wavelength indicates that the component is more sensitive to light at that wavelength. Understanding the responsivity at different wavelengths is crucial for selecting the right component for applications where specific wavelengths of light need to be detected or measured accurately.

In electronic components, the parameter "Diameter" typically refers to the measurement of the width of a circular component, such as a resistor, capacitor, or inductor. It is a crucial dimension that helps determine the physical size and fit of the component within a circuit or on a circuit board. The diameter is usually measured in millimeters (mm) or inches (in) and is important for ensuring proper placement and soldering of the component during assembly. Understanding the diameter of electronic components is essential for selecting the right size for a specific application and ensuring compatibility with other components and the overall design of the circuit.
