EGR - Exhaust gas recirculation
EGT - Exhaust gas temperature
ETB - Electronic throttle body
EVC - Exhaust valve closing
EVO - Exhaust valve opening
GDI - Gasoline Direct Injection
Hall - A type of sensor that requires a power and earth wire in addition to its signal wire, the output is normally a 5v square wave.
High side - A driver that is open circuit when off and powered to 5v or 12v when on.
High/Low driver - a pushpull or HighLow is an output that is powered "high" (12v or 5v) and switched to low (earth).
High and low Z - High and low resistance, used in terms of fuel injectors, normally around 14 ohms for high impedance and ~4 ohms for low.
IMEP - Indicated mean effective pressure
Injector impedance - The resistance of the fuel injectors, see high and low Z
IVC - Intake valve closing
IVO - Intake valve opening
Low side - A driver that is open circuit when off and grounded to earth when switched on.
LQFP - Low profile quad flat package
MBT - Mean best timing, used in context of spark timing, it is the spark timing that results in the best torque
MFB - Mass fraction burned, often stated with a number after i.e. MFB10/MFB50/MFB90 and refers to the fraction of the fuel burned by mass.
MRE - Micro rusEFI
NTC - Negative temperature coefficient, used in context of temperature sensors and refers to the resistance increasing as temperature decreases.
PFI - Port fuel injection
PID - A proportional–integral–derivative controller
PNP - Plug and play
Primary coil - The primary winding of an ignition coil
RE - rusEFI
REO - rusEFI Online
Secondary coil - The secondary winding of an ignition coil.
SI - Spark injection
Smart coil - A type of ignition coil that has its ignition drivers (IGBT) built into the coil, this means they only receive a 5v signal to activate.
SMD - Surface mount device, interchangeable with SMT
SMT - Surface mount technology, interchangeable with SMD
Stoichiometric - The ideal quantity of fuel to burn with a quantity of air for complete combustion. For gasoline this is 14.7:1, ethanol is 9:1 and methanol 6.47:1
SOIC - small outline integrated circuit
TE - TE connectors, they produce the ampseal connectors on the proteus and a lot of OEM ECUs.
TFSI - Turbo Fuel Stratified Injection - A VW direct injection lean burn strategy
TLE - Short for TLE8888 the Infineon chip on the MRE
TVIS - Toyota variable intake system, a variable inlet length system that switches on/off a set of longer intake manifold runners.

VDD - the DC Power supply connected to Drain Terminal of any FET circuit.
VISA - BMW variable inlet manifold length system
VSS - Vehicle speed sensor
VVT - Variable valve timing
