4. Symbol and footprint cross-check

What matches


CheckResult
Pin namingLooks consistent between symbol and footprint
Pin numberingLooks consistent for the pins sampled against the datasheet
Total connection countLooks consistent: 36 pins + exposed pad
Exposed pad functionLooks consistent: center pad is mapped to PGND
Package family / sizeLooks broadly consistent with a 4 mm x 5 mm WQFN with exposed pad

Mismatches / risks


SeverityIssueWhy it matters
HighThe project property Package or Case Code = TO does not match the datasheet package REE (WQFN, 36)This can cause incorrect ordering metadata, bad library search matches, or confusion during manufacturing handoff
MediumThe footprint uses a center pad around 2.8 mm x 3.8 mm, while the datasheet extracts indicate thermal-pad related dimensions of 2.6 mm to 2.8 mm for package pad and 3.6 mm x 2.8 mm for land patternThis should be manually verified because exposed-pad geometry directly affects soldering, thermal performance, and assembly yield
MediumThe footprint asset naming implies a generic 37-pad QFN pattern rather than explicitly the TI REE0036A package codeIt may still be correct, but it increases the chance of an almost-right footprint being used for the wrong package revision
MediumThe datasheet explicitly requires the exposed pad to be soldered and tied into PGND with multiple viasIf the final footprint or recommended layout omits via-ready thermal strategy, the device may suffer thermal and mechanical reliability issues
Bottom line
  • Symbol: no obvious pin-name or pin-count problem found.
  • Footprint: mostly plausible, but the package metadata is definitely wrong and the exposed-pad / land-pattern dimensions should be verified against TI REE0036A before release.
If you want, I can next turn this into a concise fix list for the part project, ordered by manufacturing risk.
