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.

The current rating of a contact is defined as the current level that creates a certain temperature rise of the contact spring — usually 20°C or 30°C. Both electrical and thermal factors govern the heat created by the current.

Terminal type or emulation specifies how your computer and the host computer to which you are connected exchange information.

In the context of electronic components, the term "Legend" typically refers to the text or symbols printed on a component or circuit board to indicate its function, value, or other important information. The legend provides key details that help users identify and understand the component's purpose within a circuit. It may include alphanumeric characters, symbols, or other markings that aid in assembly, troubleshooting, and maintenance of electronic devices. The legend is crucial for ensuring proper installation and operation of electronic components and circuits.

Contact configuration in electronic components refers to the arrangement and design of the electrical contacts within the component. This parameter specifies how the electrical connections are made and how the component interfaces with other devices or circuits. The contact configuration can vary depending on the type of component and its intended application, such as switches, relays, connectors, or integrated circuits. It is crucial to consider the contact configuration when designing or selecting electronic components to ensure proper functionality and compatibility within the overall system.

IP (or "Ingress Protection") ratings are defined in international standard EN 6529 (British BS EN 6529:1992, European IEC 659:1989). They are?used to define levels of sealing effectiveness of electrical enclosures against intrusion from foreign bodies?(tools, dirt etc) and moisture.
