I'm not sure if "acronym" is the best word, but theyare designations for
pre-preg styles common to all manufacturers. They have their roots in the
glass cloth manufacture. Although it may vary somewhat from manufacturer to
manufacturer, these designators generally refer to thickness of the pre-preg
(with also some effect on resin content). You can usually use several
different combinations of pre-preg designations to acheive the same
dielectric thickness in the finished board. However, be careful, for there
is often a price to pay for the choices made.

make use

7628,
