Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

DC
DC means direct current, where electricity flows in one constant direction, as supplied by batteries, USB ports and many plug-pack power supplies. When a product specifies DC, it runs from a DC supply rather than mains AC, so you need to provide the correct voltage and polarity.
PCB
A printed circuit board (PCB) is a board, usually rigid, with etched copper tracks that connect electronic components together without loose wiring. Components are mounted on the board and signals route between them through the copper layout.
UL 94V-2
UL 94V-2 is a plastics flammability rating that describes how a material behaves when exposed to flame in a standard test, with V-2 allowing the material to self-extinguish but permitting flaming drips. It helps you judge a plastic housing or insulation's suitability for projects where heat or fire resistance is a concern.
