Part Datasheet Audit

Review all available part information (MPN, package, pin count, description, properties). If no datasheet URL is already set, search the web for the official datasheet and update the part's Datasheet property with the URL. Then cross-check the schematic symbol, footprint, and pin descriptions against the datasheet. Summarize key specs and flag any mismatches.

I’ll audit the connector part data, locate/update the official datasheet if missing, then compare the symbol pins and footprint pad count/details against the manufacturer information and save a concise review file.

flux

Completed the part audit and updated the project metadata with the located datasheet URL plus Molex MPN/manufacturer details. I flagged no circuit-count mismatch: the footprint has 10 electrical contacts plus 2 mechanical mount pads, but the symbol terminals are missing pin descriptions and use Unspecified pin type.

Part Datasheet Audit: Molex 212528-1000
Scope
Reviewed available part information for the project part 212528-1000, searched for datasheet/source information, updated project metadata, and cross-checked the schematic terminals and PCB footprint against the available manufacturer/Mouser document data.
Sources Reviewed
Metadata Update Performed
Set project metadata fields:
Note: The platform accepted Datasheet URL, Manufacturer Part Number, and Manufacturer Name as non-standard project-level properties because this is a part project rather than a normal schematic component instance.

Schematic Symbol Cross-Check
Observed schematic symbol terminals:
  • 10 terminal components numbered 1 through 10.
  • Each terminal has Pin Number matching its designator.
  • All 10 symbol terminals have Pin Type: Unspecified.
  • No specific Pin Description values are present.
Comparison against source:
  • Circuit count matches: datasheet says 10 circuits loaded / 10 maximum; schematic has terminals 1-10.
  • Numbering coverage matches: pins 1-10 are present.
  • Pin electrical type is acceptable as passive connector contacts, but currently Unspecified; setting them to Passive would improve ERC behavior and documentation.
  • Pin descriptions are missing. Recommended description for all 10 electrical pins: Micro-Fit+ contact / circuit N, passive connector contact.
Footprint Cross-Check
Observed PCB footprint:
  • 10 electrical pads numbered 1 through 10.
  • 2 additional mechanical/mount pads numbered 11 and 12 under the Mounts container.
  • Electrical pad pitch pattern from layout: two rows at 3.00 mm row spacing with columns at 3.00 mm pitch, matching the 3.00 mm dual-row termination interface.
  • Electrical pad size shown as approximately 1.52 mm circular through-hole pads, with pad 1 rectangular for pin-1 identification.
  • Mount pads shown as approximately 3.00 mm circular pads.
Comparison against source:
  • Electrical pad count matches 10 circuits.
  • Extra pads 11 and 12 appear to be mechanical mounting/board-lock features, not additional electrical circuits. This explains why project context may show 12 pads while the part is a 10-circuit connector.
  • The 3.00 mm pitch and dual-row geometry match the datasheet product sheet.
  • Full pad/hole/mechanical dimensions could not be fully verified from the product sheet text extraction alone; final verification should use Sales Drawing 2125280000-000 for exact hole sizes, board-lock geometry, and courtyard/mechanical keepouts.
Mismatches / Issues Flagged
  1. Pin descriptions missing: terminals 1-10 do not include descriptive text from the datasheet.
  2. Pin type unspecified: terminals 1-10 are marked Unspecified; connector contacts should normally be Passive.
  3. 12 footprint pads vs 10 circuits: not a functional mismatch if pads 11-12 are mechanical mounts/board locks, but should be documented clearly so they are not mistaken for electrical contacts.
  4. Official Molex page has limited data: the official page exists but does not expose the datasheet/drawing in fetched content. The located PDF is from Mouser and references Molex drawing/spec numbers.
  5. Exact footprint dimensions need sales drawing confirmation: the footprint appears consistent by count and pitch, but exact drill and mounting geometry should be checked against Molex Sales Drawing 2125280000-000 before release.
  • Set terminals 1-10 Pin Type to Passive.
  • Add per-terminal Pin Description values for contacts 1-10.
  • If possible, attach or link the official Molex Sales Drawing 2125280000-000 to the project for exact mechanical verification.
  • Keep pads 11 and 12 labeled/documented as mechanical mounting/board-lock pads, not contacts.
