DO-214 is a standard that specifies a group of
semiconductor package
A semiconductor is a material which has an electrical conductivity value falling between that of a conductor, such as copper, and an insulator, such as glass. Its resistivity falls as its temperature rises; metals behave in the opposite way. ...
s for surface-mounted
diodes
A diode is a two-terminal electronic component that conducts current primarily in one direction (asymmetric conductance); it has low (ideally zero) resistance in one direction, and high (ideally infinite) resistance in the other.

Overview
The standard includes multiple package variants:
* DO-214AA, also known as SMB, is the middle size.
* DO-214AB, also known as SMC, is the largest size.
* DO-214AC, also known as SMA, is the smallest size.
* DO-214BA, also known as GF1
