In electronic components, the parameter "Material" refers to the substance or material used in the construction of the component. The choice of material is crucial as it directly impacts the component's performance, durability, and other characteristics. Different materials have varying properties such as conductivity, resistance to heat, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength, which determine how the component functions in a circuit. Common materials used in electronic components include metals like copper and aluminum, semiconductors like silicon, insulators like ceramics and plastics, and various alloys. Selecting the appropriate material is essential for designing reliable and efficient electronic components.

In electronic components, the "Series" refers to a group of products that share similar characteristics, designs, or functionalities, often produced by the same manufacturer. These components within a series typically have common specifications but may vary in terms of voltage, power, or packaging to meet different application needs. The series name helps identify and differentiate between various product lines within a manufacturer's catalog.

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

In electronic components, "LED" stands for Light Emitting Diode. It is a semiconductor device that emits light when an electric current passes through it. LEDs are commonly used in various applications such as indicator lights, displays, and lighting fixtures due to their energy efficiency, long lifespan, and compact size. They come in different colors and can be found in a wide range of electronic devices, from smartphones and TVs to automotive lighting and decorative lighting. LEDs have become increasingly popular as a lighting solution in recent years due to their low power consumption and environmentally friendly characteristics.

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