Part Information Review and Validation
Thought for 4 mins 26 sec
I reviewed the part project against the available project metadata and the official Hirose product references. For part-project verification, the datasheet/drawing should be treated as the source of truth, and pin count / pin numbering should match exactly when auditing the symbol and footprint
Current part information in the project
Project properties
Table
| Property | Current value | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Manufacturer Part Number | FH19C-5S-0.5SH(10) | Looks correct |
| Manufacturer Name | Hirose | Looks correct |
| Part Type | Connector | Looks correct |
| Designator Prefix | J | Looks correct for a connector |
| Mount | Surface Mount | Looks correct |
| Datasheet URL | Hirose 2D drawing URL | Present, so no web update was needed |
| Description | FFC & FPC Connectors 5P SMT HORZ .5MM PITCH REEL OF 5000 | Usable, but generic |
- Footprint asset: FH19C5S05SH10.kicad_mod
- 3D model: FH19C-5S-0.5SH_10_.stp
- Symbol graphic: FH19C-5S-0.5SH_10_ Symbol.svg
From the Hirose product page returned by web search and corroborating distributor listings:
Table
| Spec | Value |
|---|---|
| Manufacturer | Hirose Electric |
| MPN | FH19C-5S-0.5SH(10) |
| Type | FFC/FPC receptacle |
| Positions | 5 contacts |
| Mounting | SMT, right-angle / horizontal |
| Pitch | 0.5 mm |
| Connector height | 0.9 mm |
| Connector length | 4.5 mm |
| Lock style | Flip lock / ZIF |
| Rated current | 0.5 A |
| Rated voltage | 50 V AC |
| Operating temperature | -55°C to +85°C |
Table
- The project has 7 total terminals/pads: five signal contacts plus two mechanical pads.
- The schematic terminal set matches the footprint pad set exactly.
- I found no obvious symbol-to-footprint numbering mismatch.
Table
| Item | Finding | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| Package / case code | Missing | Add a package/case property, ideally using the official connector series/package wording |
| Description | Present but generic | Improve to something like: 5-position 0.5 mm pitch right-angle FFC/FPC connector, 0.9 mm height, SMT, flip-lock |
| Datasheet URL quality | Present, but it points to a 2D drawing page, not clearly a canonical catalog PDF | Optional: keep as-is, or replace with the official Hirose product page / catalog PDF if you want a richer reference |
Table
| Item | Finding | Severity |
|---|---|---|
| Pin Type | All terminals are Unspecified | Medium |
| Pin Description | No pin descriptions found | Medium |
| Functional naming | Terminals are only numbered, with no descriptive labels for the mechanical pads | Low |
| Section / Pin Group / Orientation | Not present | Low for a simple connector, but still useful |
For part audits, properties should be updated only when missing or incorrect, and pin metadata should be aligned to the datasheet rather than guessed
Footprint validation status
- I could confirm the pad count and pad names from project data.
- I could not fully verify numeric land-pattern geometry such as pad sizes, exact coordinates, courtyard, or overall footprint dimensions from the indexed project data alone.
- I also could not extract the Hirose 2D drawing contents directly through the URL parser in this session, so footprint-geometry validation is partial, not complete.
- Datasheet URL already exists, so I did not change it.
- MPN, manufacturer, mount, connector type, and designator prefix look correct.
- Symbol and footprint pad naming/count are consistent.
- Main gaps are:
- missing package/case metadata
- missing pin descriptions
- all terminals still have Pin Type = Unspecified
- only partial validation of the actual footprint geometry
If you want, I can take the next pass and:
Fix terminal metadata
Improve part properties
Verify footprint geometry
