Contact Material refers to the material used to make the electrical contacts in a component. It determines the electrical conductivity, durability, and resistance to corrosion and wear of the contacts. Common contact materials include copper, silver, gold, and alloys of these metals. The choice of contact material depends on the specific application and the required performance characteristics.

Number of Pins: Indicates the number of electrical connections available on the component. These pins are used to connect the component to other components or circuits on a printed circuit board (PCB). The number of pins determines the functionality and connectivity options of the component. It is important to ensure that the component has the correct number of pins for the intended application.

Operating Temperature is the range of temperatures at which an electronic component can function properly. It is typically specified in degrees Celsius (°C) and indicates the minimum and maximum temperatures at which the component can operate without experiencing damage or degradation. Operating Temperature is an important parameter to consider when designing electronic circuits, as it ensures that the components will function reliably in the intended operating environment.

Part Status is an electronic component parameter that indicates the availability and production status of a component. It is typically used to inform customers about the availability of a component, whether it is in production, end-of-life, or obsolete. Part Status can also provide information about any restrictions or limitations on the component's use, such as whether it is only available for certain applications or if it has been discontinued.

Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is a measure of the susceptibility of a surface mount electronic component to moisture-induced damage during soldering. It is classified into six levels, from 1 (least sensitive) to 6 (most sensitive). MSL is determined by the materials used in the component's construction, including the solderability of its terminals and the presence of moisture-absorbing materials. Components with higher MSL ratings require more stringent handling and storage conditions to prevent moisture absorption and subsequent damage during soldering.

Connector Type refers to the physical interface used to connect an electronic component to other devices or systems. It specifies the shape, size, pin configuration, and mating mechanism of the connector. Common connector types include USB, HDMI, Ethernet, and power connectors. The choice of connector type depends on factors such as signal type, data rate, power requirements, and environmental conditions.

Number of Positions, in the context of electronic components, refers to the number of distinct terminals or connection points available on the component. It indicates the number of individual electrical connections that can be made to the component. A higher number of positions typically allows for more complex functionality and versatility in circuit design.
