Part Data Review and Update

flux

I reviewed the part project against the official datasheet workflow: first ensure the datasheet URL is present, then compare project metadata, pin count, symbol, and footprint to the datasheet as the source of truth
What I updated
  • I found the official Same Sky datasheet on the manufacturer site and set the project’s Datasheet URL to:
    • https://www.sameskydevices.com/product/resource/ds03-254.pdf
Current part info vs datasheet Project metadata
  • MPN: DS03-254-02BE - present and consistent with the datasheet.
  • Datasheet URL: was missing from searchable project metadata; now added.
  • Manufacturer: missing as a project property. The official datasheet is from Same Sky; your project description still says CUI Inc. That looks like a legacy/manufacturer-name mismatch.
  • Package / mounting style: missing as a project property. The datasheet identifies it as a DIP switch, right-angle pin, through-hole, 2.54 mm pitch, 2-pole part.
  • Description: the current project description is not a clean library-style description. The sync guidance recommends a concise functional description led by what the part does
Symbol / pin count
  • The project currently has 4 terminal elements with pin numbers:
    • 1A
    • 1B
    • 2A
    • 2B
  • All four are marked Passive, which is appropriate for a mechanical switch terminal representation.
  • This matches the expected electrical structure of a 2-pole DIP switch: 2 poles implies 4 electrical terminals overall.
Footprint
  • The project has a footprint asset and 4 PCB pads, which is consistent with a 2-position DIP switch body and 4 leads.
  • The datasheet confirms:
    • 2.54 mm pitch
    • right-angle
    • through-hole
    • overall mechanical table for N = 02 parts
    • dimensions table showing L = 6.50 mm and B = 2.54 mm for the 2-pole variant
Key specs from the official datasheet
The datasheet identifies this as a DS03-254 series DIP switch with 2.54 mm pitch, 2 to 12 pole options, right-angle pins, raised actuator, and through-hole construction. For DS03-254-02BE, the pole count is 02

Mismatches and gaps I found Confirmed mismatches / missing metadata
  • Manufacturer property missing
    • Datasheet source is Same Sky, while the project description says CUI Inc.
  • Package property missing
    • Should reflect something like: DIP Switch, right-angle, through-hole, 2.54 mm pitch, 2-pole
  • Description not normalized
    • It should be rewritten into a proper functional summary per the part-sync guidance
  • Designator-prefix inconsistency
    • Project property shows Designator Prefix = S
    • Terminal elements themselves show Designator Prefix = P
    • For the part project, S is sensible for a switch; the terminal-level P values are inconsistent with that project-level intent.
Partially verified / not fully verifiable from current data
  • Pin names / pin descriptions
    • I could confirm the part is a 2-pole switch and that your project has 4 terminals, but the extracted datasheet text did not cleanly expose the terminal naming convention as 1A/1B/2A/2B.
    • So the current pin naming looks plausible, but I cannot claim full datasheet-backed verification of those exact labels from the extracted snippet.
  • Footprint geometry
    • I confirmed the footprint has 4 pads and aligns at a high level with the datasheet’s 2-pole, 2.54 mm pitch, through-hole format.
    • I could not fully verify exact pad/hole dimensions or row spacing from the currently exposed layout-node data alone.
Bottom line Looks correct
  • MPN
  • 4-pin symbol concept
  • Passive terminal type
  • 4-pad footprint concept
  • Overall 2-pole switch interpretation
Needs attention
  • Add/normalize Manufacturer Name
  • Add Package or Case Code
  • Rewrite the project description
  • Resolve the S vs P designator-prefix inconsistency
  • Optionally do a stricter pin-label and footprint-dimension audit if you want exact datasheet-level confirmation
If you want, I can do the next cleanup pass and populate the missing project properties:
  • Manufacturer Name = Same Sky
  • Part Type = Switch
  • Package or Case Code = DIP Switch, Right Angle, Through Hole, 2.54 mm, 2 Pole
  • a cleaner description for library use
Populate missing properties
Fix designator inconsistency
Audit pin labels
Check footprint dimensions
