data sheet
A document that summarizes the technical specifications, properties, and performance characteristics of a product, component, or material in a structured form. It serves as a reference for engineers, technicians, and buyers.
Vor dem Kauf des Prozessors habe ich mir das Datenblatt genau angesehen, um die Taktfrequenz zu prüfen.
Before buying the processor, I looked closely at the data sheet to check the clock speed.
'Datenblatt' (data sheet) is made up of 'Daten' (plural of 'das Datum', here in the sense of information/data) and 'Blatt' (sheet of paper, document). So it is literally a sheet with technical data.
Alle wichtigen Informationen finden Sie im Datenblatt des Produkts.
You can find all the important information in the product's data sheet.
This word belongs to technical and written language. It is found mainly in technical, scientific, or commercial contexts, for example in manuals or on product websites.
Der Ingenieur verglich die Werte aus dem Datenblatt mit seinen Messergebnissen.
The engineer compared the values from the data sheet with his measurement results.
Common verbs used in connection with 'Datenblatt' (data sheet) are 'lesen' (to read), 'prüfen' (to check), 'herunterladen' (to download), or 'vergleichen' (to compare). Information can be 'dem Datenblatt entnehmen' (taken from the data sheet), or it can be found 'im Datenblatt' (in the data sheet).
Man kann das Datenblatt als PDF von der Herstellerseite herunterladen.
You can download the data sheet as a PDF from the manufacturer's website.
manual / handbook
'Handbuch' and 'Datenblatt' are both documents with information about a product or device. A 'Handbuch' mainly explains how to use, connect, or operate something. A 'Datenblatt' mainly lists technical values, properties, and limits, often in tables. The words can be confused because both fit technical contexts and products. In practical terms: if you want to know how to use a device, you look in the manual. If you need exact technical specifications, you read the data sheet.
Im Datenblatt des Akkus stehen die genaue Spannung und die maximale Leistung.
The battery's data sheet lists the exact voltage and the maximum output.
