Part Metadata Audit and Datasheet Verification
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.
Thought for 15 sec
I’ll audit the current part project, check its properties/symbol/footprint, locate or verify the official datasheet, update the Datasheet URL if missing, then summarize any mismatches against the datasheet.
Worked for 1 min 6 sec
The part had MPN/manufacturer metadata but no Datasheet URL. I found the official TDK C-series MLCC datasheet/catalog page and will use it as the source for the audit.
Worked for 7 mins 28 sec
Audit complete. I set the missing Datasheet URL to the official TDK C-series MLCC datasheet, verified the 2-pin passive symbol and C3225 / 1210 footprint geometry, and created the full report in Part Audit — C3225X5R1C106K200AA.
Key issue flagged: the indexed library metadata still shows capacitance as 10 F, while the datasheet says 10 µF; I added corrected project metadata as 10uF, but the part-specific indexed field may need manual UI correction. Final review is clean with no unresolved violations.

Symbol Check
Table
| Item | Project state | Datasheet expectation | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Terminal count | 2 passive terminals | MLCC has two external terminations | Match |
| Pin numbers | Pin 1 and Pin 2 | Non-polarized two-terminal capacitor; no functional pin names required beyond terminals | Match |
| Pin type | Passive | Passive capacitor terminals | Match |
| Pin descriptions | No explicit terminal descriptions found | Datasheet does not define functional polarity; terminal descriptions could be improved as Electrode / terminal | Acceptable, optional improvement |
Footprint Check
Observed footprint asset:
CAP_C3225X5R1C106K200AA.kicad_mod.Table
| Footprint item | Project footprint | Datasheet / package expectation | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Package size | Fab outline 3.2 mm × 2.5 mm | C3225 body L 3.20±0.40 mm, W 2.50±0.30 mm | Match |
| SMD pads | Two rectangular SMD pads | Two terminal MLCC | Match |
| Pad numbering | Pad 1 and Pad 2 | Two external capacitor terminations | Match |
| Pad dimensions | 1.1 mm × 2.2 mm each | Datasheet gives component terminal geometry, not a unique land pattern in the extracted catalog section | Plausible / no datasheet mismatch found |
| Pad centers | ±1.65 mm, 3.30 mm center-to-center | Consistent with a 3.2 mm 1210 body footprint style | Plausible / no mismatch found |
| Courtyard | 4.9 mm × 3.0 mm | Provides clearance around 3.2 mm × 2.5 mm body | Acceptable |
| 3D model | STEP model present | Part-specific mechanical model expected | Match |
Mismatches / Issues Found
- Datasheet URL missing — fixed by setting the Datasheet URL to the official TDK C-series catalog URL.
- Capacitance metadata mismatch observed in library search — the library result showed
Capacitance = 10with unitF/ derived10F, while the datasheet value is 10 µF. I updated project-level capacitance metadata to 10 µF where the editor accepted it, but this should be re-checked in the part property UI because the platform may keep non-standard project properties separately from part-type-specific capacitor fields. - Pin descriptions absent — acceptable for a non-polarized MLCC, but optional improvement would be setting terminal descriptions to
Passive capacitor terminal / electrodefor both pins. - No footprint mismatch found — footprint body outline and pad count align with C3225 / EIA 1210 geometry. The extracted official catalog did not provide a unique recommended PCB land pattern table for this exact MPN, so pad dimensions were judged against package geometry rather than a TDK land-pattern drawing.
Review Status
After setting the Datasheet URL, the missing datasheet warning cleared. The remaining review issue before creating this file was only missing project documentation; this audit file was created to satisfy that documentation requirement.
Recommended Follow-Up
- Verify in the part property panel that the capacitor-specific Capacitance field displays 10 µF, not 10 F.
- Optionally add pin descriptions to both terminals.
- If assembly process constraints are strict, request TDK delivery specifications for the exact MPN to confirm final land pattern and soldering recommendations.
