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.

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.

The parameter "Applications" in electronic components refers to the specific uses or functions for which a component is designed. It encompasses various fields such as consumer electronics, industrial automation, telecommunications, automotive, and medical devices. Understanding the applications helps in selecting the right components for a particular design based on performance, reliability, and compatibility requirements. This parameter also guides manufacturers in targeting their products to relevant markets and customer needs.

In electronic components, "Depth" typically refers to the measurement of the distance from the front to the back of the component. It is an important parameter to consider when designing or selecting components for a project, as it determines how much space the component will occupy within a circuit or device. The depth of a component can impact the overall size and layout of the circuit board or enclosure in which it will be installed. It is usually specified in millimeters or inches and is crucial for ensuring proper fit and functionality within the intended application.

Terminal type or emulation specifies how your computer and the host computer to which you are connected exchange information.

Coil voltage refers to the electrical potential difference that is applied across the coil of an electromechanical device, such as a relay or a solenoid. This voltage is essential for energizing the coil, creating a magnetic field that enables the device to perform its intended function, such as opening or closing contacts. The coil voltage is specified by the manufacturer and varies depending on the design and application of the component, commonly available in standard values like 5V, 12V, 24V, and others. Proper selection of coil voltage is crucial for optimal performance and longevity of the device.

Switching current refers to the maximum current that an electronic component, such as a transistor or relay, can handle when transitioning between its on and off states. It is a critical parameter that affects the performance and reliability of the component during switching operations. Exceeding the specified switching current can lead to overheating, damage, or failure of the device. Understanding switching current is essential for designing circuits that operate safely and efficiently.

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.
