Part Datasheet Audit
Thought for 9 sec
I’ll audit the part metadata, locate the official manufacturer datasheet if needed, update the Datasheet property, then verify the symbol, footprint, and pin definitions against it.
Worked for 32 sec
The official Phoenix Contact datasheet URL is already set. I’m now checking the electrical ratings and mechanical drawing against the existing three-pin symbol and 7.62 mm through-hole footprint.

Part Datasheet Audit — Phoenix Contact 1704936
Reviewed available project/library metadata, the official Phoenix Contact datasheet, schematic terminals, footprint geometry, pad numbering,...
Audit complete. The official Phoenix Contact datasheet was already correctly linked, and the critical footprint geometry matches: 3 pads, 7.62 mm pitch, 1.3 mm drills, correct numbering, and 22.86 × 12.5 mm outline.
Flagged issues include incorrect Mount and Compliance properties, missing part/package metadata, a truncated description, and unspecified pin types/descriptions. Full findings: Part Datasheet Audit.

Part Datasheet Audit — Phoenix Contact 1704936
Audit scope
Reviewed available project/library metadata, the official Phoenix Contact datasheet, schematic terminals, footprint geometry, pad numbering, and terminal descriptions.
Identification and metadata
Table
| Field | Current part data | Datasheet / official value | Result |

| Product name | MKDS 5/ 3-7,62 | MKDS 5/ 3-7,62 | Match |
| Product type | Part Type property is empty | PCB terminal block; COMBICON Terminals L; MKDS 5 family | Metadata missing |
| Pin/contact count | 3 terminals / 3 pads | 3 positions, 3 potentials, 3 connections, one solder pin per potential | Match |
| Datasheet | https://www.phoenixcontact.com/en-us/products/printed-circuit-board-terminal-mkds-5-3-762-1704936?type=pdf | Official Phoenix Contact product PDF endpoint | Match; no update required |
| Designator prefix | J | Connector/terminal-block convention | Acceptable |
| Mount property | Screw | PCB mounting is through-hole, wave soldering; screw is the wire connection method | Mismatch |
| Compliance property | Green | Green (6021) is housing color, not compliance | Mismatch |
| Package property | Not present / not exposed | 3-position through-hole terminal block, 7.62 mm pitch; 22.86 × 12.5 mm body, 26.6 mm overall height | Metadata missing |
| Description | Correct main ratings, but ends after “number of solder pins per potential:” | Value is 1; description should be completed | Truncated/incomplete |
Key manufacturer specifications

Schematic symbol cross-check
- The part contains three separate terminal symbols numbered 1, 2, and 3. This matches the three independent potentials and the footprint pad numbering.
- There is no manufacturer-defined signal naming because these are electrically equivalent, independent passive terminals; numeric names 1–3 are appropriate.
- The terminal records show
Pin Type: Unspecified, and the pin detail is displayed asundefined. For ERC and library clarity, each should be described as a passive terminal/contact with a short description such as “Terminal position 1”, “Terminal position 2”, and “Terminal position 3”. - No swapped or missing terminal numbers were found.
Footprint cross-check
Table
| Feature | Footprint | Datasheet | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pad count | 3 | 3 | Match |
| Pad numbering | 1, 2, 3 left-to-right | Three linear positions | Match |
| Pitch | 7.620 mm | 7.62 mm | Match |
| Drill diameter | 1.3 mm | 1.3 mm | Match |
| Pad type | Plated through-hole | Wave-soldered through-hole pins | Match |
| Pad copper diameter | 1.95 mm | Not explicitly specified in extracted manufacturer drilling plan | No contradiction; verify against fabrication annular-ring rules |
| Body outline width | 22.86 mm | 22.86 mm | Match |
| Body outline depth | 12.5 mm | 12.5 mm | Match |
| End overhang from outer pad centers | 3.81 mm each end | Drawing indicates 3.81 mm | Match |
| 3D model | Present | Manufacturer CAD is available | Geometry alignment not fully proven by numeric inspection |
The footprint’s primary manufacturing geometry—three pads, 7.62 mm pitch, 1.3 mm holes, and 22.86 × 12.5 mm outline—matches the official drawing.
Flagged mismatches and recommended corrections
- Mount property is incorrect: change
MountfromScrewtoThrough Hole(or the platform’s canonical THT value). Keep “screw connection with tension sleeve” in a connection-method property or description. - Compliance property is incorrect:
Greenis a color, not a compliance status. Move it to a Color/Housing Color property. Populate compliance separately only with supported claims such as RoHS/WEEE or approvals. - Part Type is blank: set it to
PCB Terminal Blockor the closest canonical connector/terminal-block category. - Package metadata is missing: add a package description covering 3 positions, 7.62 mm pitch, through-hole mounting, and body dimensions.
- Description is truncated: complete “number of solder pins per potential: 1” and optionally include the 1.3 mm PCB hole requirement.
- Pin metadata is incomplete: set all three terminals to passive and add per-position descriptions. Electrical numbering and footprint mapping are otherwise correct.
- 3D model alignment remains a visual verification item: the model exists, but this audit did not establish exact body/pin alignment solely from the asset metadata.
Overall assessment
The part is electrically and mechanically usable based on the audited symbol-to-pad mapping and the critical footprint dimensions. The main issues are metadata quality—not pad count, pitch, hole diameter, numbering, or body outline. Correcting the mount, compliance, part type, description, package, and terminal metadata would make the library entry substantially clearer and safer to reuse.
