Cache is a relatively small amount of intermediate computing memory that is faster, but more expensive, than main memory and where the most frequently used information is stored for fast access by a processor.

Capacitors are simple, non-semiconductor electrical components, the current through which is related to the rate at which voltage changes across it.

Chip-On-Board (COB) is a method of affixing unencapsulated chips onto
printed circuit boards using a wire bonding process.

Chip Scale Packaging is a method of using integrated circuits (chips) without encapsulating them in epoxy, thereby utilizing less space on the circuit board.

Consigned Kit or “consignment” model, where an OEM purchases raw materials and components and “consigns” them to an EMS provider for assembly. In the consignment model, an EMS provider’s revenue includes only the value-added in assembly, but not the cost of components. Opposite of “Turnkey” model which is an outsourcing model, turning all aspects of electronics manufacturing over to an EMS provider, who buys the raw materials and components and bills the OEM for a complete assembly.
