Cross-check of symbol and footprint vs available official data


CheckResultRisk
Pin countFootprint and symbol both implement 26 signal terminals plus 2 mounting holesLow
Part styleFootprint is through-hole, right-angle, consistent with the product descriptionLow
Body envelopeFootprint outline is about 39.5 mm x 36.5 mm, matching the official dimensions seen on the TE product pageLow
Mounting holesTwo mechanical holes are present as MH1 and MH2Low
Pin numbering presenceNumbered positions exist in the symbol and footprintLow
Pin electrical typesAll schematic terminals are UnspecifiedMedium
Pin names / functionsSymbol uses only numeric terminals; no cavity labels beyond numbersMedium
Datasheet-to-footprint dimensional verificationIncomplete, because the scanned datasheet does not include the product drawing / recommended PCB layoutHigh
Drill / pad validationCurrent footprint uses 1.5 mm drill and 2.25 mm pad for signal pins, but I could not verify these against an official TE drawing from the scanned PDFHigh
Mechanical hole validationCurrent footprint uses 3.4 mm drill, but I could not verify against the official product drawing from the scanned PDFHigh

Manufacturing / ordering / failure risks flagged


IssueWhy it matters
Missing verified product drawing dimensionsWithout the official product drawing, signal-hole diameters, mounting-hole diameters, and row spacing cannot be fully confirmed. This is the biggest manufacturing risk.
No explicit package/footprint validation source in the scanned PDFThe current footprint may still be correct, but it is not fully traceable to the official drawing from the scanned PDF.
Unspecified schematic pin typesThis can reduce ERC usefulness and make downstream integration less reliable.
No cavity function metadataFor a connector part, lack of named cavity metadata increases risk of wiring mistakes in end-use designs.
Bottom line
  • What looks correct: overall part identity, 26-position count, 2 mounting holes, right-angle through-hole style, and overall body size alignment.
  • What remains risky: the footprint’s hole sizes, exact pad geometry, and mounting-hole geometry are not fully verifiable from the currently scanned datasheet PDF.
  • Most important next correction target: obtain the official TE product drawing for 6437288-4 and compare it directly against the current footprint asset 64372884.kicad_mod.
If you want, I can next search the official TE product drawing PDF and do a line-by-line footprint verification against it.
