So my proper Googling for D132 ,in this case, should be of form

"D132" AND "datasheet" "part marking" OR "top code" OR "topcode" OR "top
mark" OR "topmark" OR "marking"

in the searchbox

IMHO, adding "filetypedf" in place of "datasheet" would be better:

Try this:
http://www.google.com/search?q=diode...filetype%3Apdf

BTW, I have no answer to your question regarding wildcards. It appears
that Google parses the asterisk instead of searching for it.

I've previously tried and failed, to find a searchengine that does not
discard punctuation characters

Limiting to pdf search would fail to pick up usenet type side references
