Part Datasheet Review Summary


Review all available part information (MPN, package, pin count, description, properties). If no datasheet URL is already set, search the web for the official datasheet and update the part's Datasheet property with the URL. Then cross-check the schematic symbol, footprint, and pin descriptions against the datasheet. Summarize key specs and flag any mismatches.
I’ll verify the part metadata against the official datasheet, update the Datasheet property if needed, then cross-check symbol pins, footprint, and descriptions for mismatches.
Completed the datasheet review for WSLP40261L000FEA. The Datasheet URL was already set to the official Vishay document, so no update was needed.
Open items:
  • No electrical or footprint dimensional mismatches found.
  • Caveat: the Vishay datasheet does not explicitly number the 4 terminals, so the project’s pin numbering/A-B labels are plausible but not manufacturer-confirmed.

Schematic Symbol Cross-Check
The schematic symbol contains 4 terminals:

PinProject descriptionPosition / sideReview
1Current / force terminal ALeft sidePlausible for left force terminal
2Current / force terminal BRight sidePlausible for right force terminal
3Kelvin sense terminal BRight sidePlausible for right Kelvin sense terminal
4Kelvin sense terminal ALeft sidePlausible for left Kelvin sense terminal
The datasheet does not provide explicit numbered terminal/pin assignments for the 4-terminal footprint. Therefore, the project’s A/B and pin-number assignment is a reasonable convention, but it cannot be independently confirmed from the datasheet.
Footprint Cross-Check
The KiCad footprint asset defines:
  • Body fab outline: 10.10 mm × 6.60 mm, matching datasheet body dimensions.
  • Pad 1: left large pad, 2.67 mm × 5.66 mm.
  • Pad 2: right large pad, 2.67 mm × 5.66 mm.
  • Pad 3: right small sense pad, 0.99 mm × 2.67 mm.
  • Pad 4: left small sense pad, 0.99 mm × 2.67 mm.
  • Outer pad span: 10.74 mm, matching datasheet recommended solder pad dimension w.
  • 3D model asset: WSLP40261L000FEA.stp present.
The footprint dimensions match the datasheet recommended solder pad dimensions and body outline. The footprint contains four SMD pads, consistent with the project’s Kelvin current-sense symbol.
Mismatches / Issues Flagged
  1. Datasheet does not explicitly number the 4 terminals. The project’s pin numbering and force/sense A/B assignments are plausible and internally consistent, but not directly confirmed by Vishay document 30180.
  2. The datasheet describes WSLP4026 as a surface-mount Power Metal Strip resistor; it does not explicitly call out a named “4-terminal Kelvin” pinout table in the extracted content. The footprint and symbol implement a 4-pad Kelvin-style land pattern matching the datasheet solder pad geometry.
  3. No electrical spec mismatch found: project description states 1 mΩ, ±1%, 7 W, anti-sulfur, AEC-Q200; these align with the datasheet for WSLP40261L000FEA.
  4. No footprint dimensional mismatch found against the datasheet recommended land pattern.
Conclusion
The part metadata, datasheet URL, symbol, footprint geometry, and pin descriptions are generally consistent with the official Vishay datasheet. The only caveat is that the datasheet does not provide an explicit terminal numbering diagram, so pin numbers 1–4 and A/B labels should be treated as a project convention rather than a manufacturer-confirmed numbering scheme.
