having leads that are designed to be soldered on the side of a circuit board that the body of the component is mounted on.

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.

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.

In electronic components, the term "Terminal Position" refers to the physical location of the connection points on the component where external electrical connections can be made. These connection points, known as terminals, are typically used to attach wires, leads, or other components to the main body of the electronic component. The terminal position is important for ensuring proper connectivity and functionality of the component within a circuit. It is often specified in technical datasheets or component specifications to help designers and engineers understand how to properly integrate the component into their circuit designs.

Occurring at or forming the end of a series, succession, or the like; closing; concluding.

The center distance from one pole to the next.

JESD-30 Code refers to a standardized descriptive designation system established by JEDEC for semiconductor-device packages. This system provides a systematic method for generating designators that convey essential information about the package's physical characteristics, such as size and shape, which aids in component identification and selection. By using JESD-30 codes, manufacturers and engineers can ensure consistency and clarity in the specification of semiconductor packages across various applications and industries.

An indicator of formal certification of qualifications.

an electronic circuit that converts the voltage of an alternating current (AC) into a direct current (DC) voltage.?

Supply Current-Max refers to the maximum amount of current that an electronic component or circuit can draw from its power supply under specified operating conditions. It is a critical parameter that determines the power consumption and thermal performance of the device. Exceeding this limit can lead to overheating, potential damage, or failure of the component. Knowing the Supply Current-Max helps in designing circuits that ensure proper operation and reliability.

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