Pin descriptions / assignments (per wiring diagram in datasheet)
  • Pin 1: LOAD (AC output terminal)
  • Pin 2: LOAD (AC output terminal)
  • Pin 3: CONTROL input (−DC / AC)
  • Pin 4: CONTROL input (+DC / AC)
    Note: “Load can be wired in location A or B” per the diagram.
Package / mechanical dimensions
  • Mechanical drawing provided for the SIP package (all dimensions in inches [millimeters]).
  • Stated tolerances: ±0.02 in / 0.5 mm.
  • The numeric dimension values are embedded in a drawing image and could not be machine-extracted here; refer to the drawing in the linked datasheet for exact body size, lead pitch, and keepouts.
  1. Cross-check: schematic symbol and footprint vs. datasheet
Schematic symbol vs. datasheet pinout
  • AC load pins:
    • Project: AC_A is pin 1, AC_B is pin 2.
    • Datasheet: Pins 1 and 2 are the AC LOAD terminals.
    • Status: Consistent.
  • Control pins:
    • Project: DC is pin 3, and -DC is pin 4.
    • Datasheet: Pin 3 is −DC (negative control), Pin 4 is +DC (positive control).
    • Status: MISMATCH. The control polarity is swapped in the schematic:
      • Should be pin 3 = −DC and pin 4 = +DC.
      • Project currently has pin 3 = +DC and pin 4 = −DC.
    • Risk: High. This will reverse-bias the LED input of the SSR and can prevent turn-on, damage the input, or cause test/field failures. Must be corrected.
Footprint/PCB vs. mechanical drawing
  • PCB structure shows a single default footprint container with 4 pads named after the terminals (no defined body outline or dimensioned pad pattern). No board stackup or defined package dimensions are present.
  • Datasheet provides a SIP-4 mechanical drawing with defined tolerances; exact pad pitch/spacing and body outline must match for proper fit.
  • Status: INCOMPLETE/UNVERIFIED.
    • No verified SIP-4 pad pitch, pin-to-pin spacing, courtyard, or body outline in the PCB data.
    • Pin 1 orientation and package polarity marking cannot be confirmed from the current PCB node set.
  • Risks:
    • Incorrect pin pitch or hole/land sizing can cause assembly fit issues.
    • Ambiguous pin 1 orientation can lead to 180° placement errors.
    • Lack of courtyard and body outline can impact DFM/inspection.
Recommendations to resolve mismatches
  • Schematic:
    • Swap control pin numbering to match the datasheet:
      • Pin 3: −DC (negative control)
      • Pin 4: +DC (positive control)
    • Keep LOAD pins 1 and 2 as is.
  • PCB footprint:
    • Implement a proper SIP-4 footprint per the datasheet drawing:
      • Correct pin pitch and spacing for all 4 leads.
      • Define body outline and courtyard.
      • Mark pin 1 clearly on silkscreen and/or assembly layer.
    • Verify pad sizes/holes to the manufacturer’s recommended land pattern or through-hole/surface variant as applicable.
If you want, I can:
  • Set the Datasheet property to the official Sensata CX Series PDF now.
  • Then update the schematic symbol’s pin assignments and prepare a correct SIP-4 footprint aligned to the datasheet.
