Materials and finish

As the datasheet states them (page.json metadata.appearance; the 3D model's colours follow it).

Part Material Colour / plating Datasheet says Page
contacts copper to more efficiently remove heat from the device. The two center leads on each side of the package should be connected together to as large a copper area on the PCB as is possible to remove heat from t 16
