3) Datasheet scan summary
The current PDF is an official Samtec print/drawing document. It contains strong mechanical and ordering information, but it does not appear to be a full electrical datasheet with complete electrical tables.

Table
| Severity | Issue | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| High | Project property says Mount = Cable, but the datasheet for -01 explicitly says Surface Mount and the footprint is SMD | This can cause incorrect part classification, BOM confusion, wrong filtering in library searches, and possibly incorrect ordering/use in downstream workflows |
| Medium | The schematic symbol has no defined pin names and all pins are Unspecified | Not usually fatal for manufacturing, but it weakens ERC quality and makes connector orientation/review more error-prone |
| Medium | The symbol uses 10 separate terminal objects rather than a single connector symbol with defined pins | Can make the part harder to validate and reuse correctly, especially for mating orientation and numbering checks |
| Medium | The PDF available is mainly a mechanical print, not a complete electrical datasheet | Electrical metadata is incomplete, so the part project currently lacks validated electrical limits and operating specs |
Table
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| Contact count | Matches: 10 contacts in project vs 10-position part |
| Pitch along row | Matches: 2.54 mm |
| Two-row style | Matches: double vertical / double row |
| Overall body length for 5 positions/row | Footprint body length of about 20.32 mm is consistent with datasheet formula |
| Pad numbering count | Matches: 1 through 10 |
| First-position marking presence | Footprint includes a pin-1 marker, which is appropriate |
- The Mount property mismatch is the biggest practical issue.
- The missing electrical tables are a documentation quality problem, but not necessarily a fabrication blocker for a connector.
- I do not see a clear fatal pin-count or gross outline mismatch from the available data.
- The main board-risk concern is orientation / numbering ambiguity caused by the weak symbol definition.
Table
| Priority | Fix |
|---|---|
| 1 | Change the part property Mount from Cable to Surface Mount / SMD |
| 2 | Replace the split-terminal symbol with a proper connector symbol, or at minimum define all pins explicitly and assign meaningful connector pin types |
| 3 | Add clearer pin metadata so ERC and reuse are more reliable |
| 4 | If you want full electrical metadata in the part project, use a fuller Samtec datasheet/catalog source in addition to this drawing |
If you want, I can next check whether I’m allowed to update the incorrect Mount property and improve the connector pin metadata for this part project.
