"Base Product Number" (BPN) refers to the fundamental identifier assigned to a component by the manufacturer. This number is used to identify a specific product family or series of components that share common features, characteristics, or functionality. The BPN is usually part of a larger part number or order code that includes additional information, such as variations in packaging, tolerance, voltage ratings, and other specifications.

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.

In the context of electronic components, the parameter "Gender" typically refers to the physical characteristics of connectors or interfaces that determine how they can be mated together. Connectors are often designed with specific gender types, such as male or female, to ensure proper alignment and connection between devices. A male connector typically has protruding pins or plugs that fit into a corresponding female connector, which has receptacles or sockets to receive the pins. This design helps prevent incorrect connections and ensures a secure and reliable electrical connection. Understanding the gender of connectors is crucial when designing or assembling electronic systems to ensure compatibility and proper functionality. It is essential to match the gender of connectors correctly to avoid damage and ensure optimal performance of the electronic components.

A nautical unit of measure equal to one tenth of a nautical mile or approximately 1 fathoms.

Wire Gauge - AWG (American Wire Gauge) is a standardized system used to measure the diameter of electrical wire. It is commonly used in electronic components to specify the size of wire needed for a particular application. The AWG number indicates the wire's diameter, with lower numbers representing thicker wires and higher numbers representing thinner wires. Understanding the AWG of a wire is important for ensuring proper electrical conductivity, current-carrying capacity, and overall performance in electronic circuits.
