What the active footprint currently contains
Important footprint data extracted from the footprint asset
Critical findings
| Severity | Finding | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| High | The active part symbol has 19 terminals, but the source footprint asset includes two additional NPTH locating holes (MH2, MH3) that do not appear in the active Flux footprint node tree. | If those locating holes are missing from the real PCB footprint, the connector may not physically fit the board. This is a manufacturing/assembly failure risk. |
| High | All symbol terminals are generic and unnamed. | This creates a strong risk of wiring the transformer pairs, center taps, or LEDs incorrectly, which can cause board failure or nonfunctional Ethernet. |
| Medium | All symbol pin types are Unspecified. | ERC value is reduced and polarity/direction errors are easier to miss. |
| Medium | Part Type is set to Inductors. | This can cause bad classification, poor searchability, and ordering/BOM confusion. |
| Medium | The datasheet clearly distinguishes LED polarity and LED2 color behavior, but the current symbol does not encode those functions. | Easy to miswire LEDs or misunderstand the tri-color behavior. |
| Low | The project only exposes generic terminal designators rather than connector-style named pins. | Not fatal by itself, but it makes integration into real designs more error-prone. |
What appears correct
| Item | Assessment |
|---|---|
| MPN | Matches the datasheet |
| Mount style | Through-hole, consistent |
| Presence of 17 electrical pins plus 2 shield/mechanical plated holes | Plausible for this connector family |
| 3D model + imported footprint asset | Present |
Main issues to fix
| Priority | Fix needed |
|---|---|
| 1 | Add the missing NPTH locating holes from the source footprint asset into the active footprint, if the datasheet requires them for this exact variant |
| 2 | Rename terminals 1 through 17 to their datasheet functions |
| 3 | Set proper pin types for center taps, differential pins, LED pins, and shield tabs |
| 4 | Correct the part classification from Inductors to a connector-appropriate type |
Highest-risk mismatch
| Issue | Risk |
|---|---|
| Missing MH2/MH3 locating holes in the active footprint | Most likely to cause immediate assembly/mechanical failure |
