Contact plating (finish) provides corrosion protection for base metals and optimizes the mechanical and electrical properties of the contact interfaces.

Illumination in electronic components refers to the amount of light or brightness that is emitted by a device or component. It is a measure of how well the component can produce or emit light, typically in the form of LEDs or displays. The illumination parameter is important in determining the visibility and clarity of the information displayed by the component, as well as its overall performance in low-light conditions. Higher illumination levels generally result in better visibility and readability of the displayed information, making it a crucial factor in the design and functionality of electronic devices.

Mechanical life is a parameter used to measure the durability and reliability of electronic components, particularly mechanical switches and connectors. It refers to the number of mechanical operations or cycles that a component can withstand before it fails or exhibits degraded performance. Components with a higher mechanical life rating are considered more robust and long-lasting, making them suitable for applications where frequent switching or physical stress is expected. Manufacturers typically test and specify the mechanical life of their components to help users understand their expected lifespan and performance under various operating conditions.

Illumination Type in electronic components refers to the method or technology used to provide lighting or illumination within the component. This parameter specifies the type of lighting source or mechanism integrated into the component to enable visibility or indication. Common illumination types include LED (Light Emitting Diode), LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode), and backlighting. The choice of illumination type can impact factors such as power consumption, brightness, color accuracy, and overall performance of the electronic component.

The parameter "Current Rating (Max)" in electronic components specifies the maximum amount of electric current that the component can safely handle without overheating or being damaged. It is a crucial specification that ensures reliable operation in a circuit, as exceeding this limit can lead to failure or reduced lifespan of the component. This rating is typically expressed in amperes (A) and varies depending on the type of component, its design, and its intended application. Knowing the current rating is essential for designers to ensure that components are adequately rated for their specific use cases.

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.

Product Height (mm) in electronic components refers to the measurement of the component's vertical dimension. It indicates how tall the component is when installed in a circuit or system. This parameter is crucial for determining compatibility with enclosures, ensuring adequate space for components on printed circuit boards, and facilitating proper airflow and cooling in electronic designs.
