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

Contact finish refers to the surface coating or treatment applied to the electrical contacts of electronic components. This finish is crucial for ensuring reliable electrical connections and preventing corrosion or oxidation of the contacts. Common contact finishes include gold, silver, tin, and nickel, each offering different levels of conductivity, durability, and resistance to environmental factors. The choice of contact finish depends on the specific application requirements, such as operating conditions, cost considerations, and compatibility with other components in the circuit. Selecting the appropriate contact finish is essential for maintaining the performance and longevity of electronic devices.

a measurement of?wire?diameter.?This determines the amount of electric current the wire can safely carry, as well as its electrical resistance and weight.

Contact End in electronic components refers to the point where electrical connections are made or terminated. It is the physical interface where a component can be connected to a circuit or another component. The contact end typically consists of metal pins, pads, or terminals that allow for the transfer of electrical signals or power between components. Proper alignment and connection of the contact end are crucial for ensuring reliable performance and functionality of electronic devices.

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