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.

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.

The "JESD-609 Code" in electronic components refers to a standardized marking code that indicates the lead-free solder composition and finish of electronic components for compliance with environmental regulations.

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

An ECCN (Export Control Classification Number) is an alphanumeric code used by the U.S. Bureau of Industry and Security to identify and categorize electronic components and other dual-use items that may require an export license based on their technical characteristics and potential for military use.

Terminal Finish refers to the surface treatment applied to the terminals or leads of electronic components to enhance their performance and longevity. It can improve solderability, corrosion resistance, and overall reliability of the connection in electronic assemblies. Common finishes include nickel, gold, and tin, each possessing distinct properties suitable for various applications. The choice of terminal finish can significantly impact the durability and effectiveness of electronic devices.

Any Feature, including a modified Existing Feature, that is not an Existing Feature.

HTS (Harmonized Tariff Schedule) codes are product classification codes between 8-1 digits. The first six digits are an HS code, and the countries of import assign the subsequent digits to provide additional classification. U.S. HTS codes are 1 digits and are administered by the U.S. International Trade Commission.

Reach Compliance Code refers to a designation indicating that electronic components meet the requirements set by the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulation in the European Union. It signifies that the manufacturer has assessed and managed the chemical substances within the components to ensure safety and environmental protection. This code is vital for compliance with regulations aimed at minimizing risks associated with hazardous substances in electronic products.

The parameter "Physical Dimension" in electronic components refers to the measurable size and shape characteristics of a component. This includes dimensions such as length, width, height, and diameter, which are critical for ensuring proper fit and integration into electronic circuits and systems. Physical dimensions also influence the component's performance, thermal management, and overall reliability in application environments. Understanding these dimensions is essential for designers to maintain compatibility with circuit boards and reduce issues related to space constraints.

Frequency bands (Low / High) in electronic components refer to the range of frequencies over which the component operates effectively. The low frequency band typically refers to frequencies below a certain threshold, while the high frequency band refers to frequencies above that threshold. Understanding the frequency bands of electronic components is crucial for designing circuits and systems that operate within the desired frequency range. Components such as capacitors, inductors, and transistors may have specific frequency bands in which they exhibit optimal performance, making it important to consider these specifications when selecting components for a particular application.

The parameter "High Band Attenuation (min / max dB)" in electronic components refers to the range of attenuation values within a specific frequency band. Attenuation is the reduction in signal strength as it passes through a component or system. In this context, the high band refers to higher frequencies within the component's operating range. The minimum and maximum dB values indicate the range of attenuation that can be expected at those frequencies, providing insight into the component's performance in attenuating high-frequency signals. Designers and engineers use this parameter to ensure that the component meets the required specifications for signal attenuation in high-frequency applications.

The parameter "Low Band Attenuation (min / max dB)" in electronic components refers to the range of attenuation levels within a specific frequency range, typically in the lower frequency band. Attenuation is the reduction in signal strength as it passes through a component or system. The minimum and maximum dB values indicate the range within which the signal strength is attenuated in the low-frequency range. This parameter is important for determining the performance of the component in filtering out unwanted signals or noise in the lower frequency spectrum. A lower value for low band attenuation indicates better signal retention in the specified frequency range.

Return Loss is a measure of the effectiveness of the impedance matching of a device or component in a transmission line environment. It quantifies the amount of power that is reflected back to the source due to impedance mismatches at specific frequency bands, typically referred to as Low Band and High Band. A higher Return Loss indicates better matching and less reflected power, while a lower Return Loss signifies poorer matching and higher reflection. It is usually expressed in decibels (dB), where a positive value indicates acceptable performance and a negative value indicates a loss in signal integrity.

Insertion Loss (Tx) is a parameter used to measure the amount of signal loss that occurs when a signal passes through a component or system. It is typically expressed in decibels (dB) and represents the reduction in signal strength between the input and output of the component. A lower insertion loss value indicates better signal transmission efficiency, as less signal power is lost during the transmission process. Insertion Loss (Tx) is an important consideration in electronic components such as filters, amplifiers, and connectors, as it directly impacts the overall performance and quality of the signal being transmitted. Manufacturers often provide insertion loss specifications to help users understand how much signal loss to expect when using a particular component.

Insertion Loss (Rx) is a parameter used to measure the amount of signal loss that occurs when a signal passes through a component or system. It is typically expressed in decibels (dB) and represents the reduction in signal strength between the input and output of the component. A higher insertion loss value indicates greater signal attenuation, meaning that more of the signal's power is lost as it passes through the component. Insertion Loss (Rx) is an important consideration in electronic components such as filters, amplifiers, and connectors, as it can impact the overall performance and efficiency of a system.

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