Datasheetissa

Datasheetissa is a term used in technology and engineering communities to describe an exemplary datasheet—one that communicates specifications, requirements, and usage clearly and comprehensively. The word blends 'datasheet' with the feminine suffix '-issa', a stylistic choice seen in various product names and community memes; its use is informal and community-driven rather than official.

A datasheetissa typically presents information in a structured, readable format. Common characteristics include a concise overview, clearly defined electrical and mechanical specifications with units and tolerances, pinouts, thermal and environmental conditions, recommended operating ranges, and test methods. It also often includes practical examples, calculations, diagrams, glossary terms, and cross-references to related components. The goal is to enable engineers, designers, and students to quickly understand capability, limitations, and integration steps.

In practice, calling a datasheet "datasheetissa" signals approval of documentation quality, but it can also be used critically when a datasheet omits essential details or uses ambiguous language. While the term is widely recognized in some online communities, it has no formal standard or certification.
