Part Information Review and Validation

I’ll update the terminal pin descriptions and refine the package-related project properties, then quickly re-inspect the part metadata to confirm the flagged issues are resolved.
Pin metadata is updated; I also added an explicit package implementation detail. I’ll re-read the project and schematic now to confirm the changes landed.
Updated and verified the flagged metadata issues.
Open items:
  • All 16 terminals now have descriptive pin text and Passive pin type.
  • Package metadata is now explicit: 8-position SMD DIP switch, with implementation details noting 16 gull-wing terminals, raised actuator, and 2.54 mm pitch.
Suggested next steps:
  1. Run the part review checks again if you want a formal pass/fail status.
  2. Do a final numeric footprint-land verification against the Omron pad drawing before publishing/manufacturing.

This mapping creates paired SPST sections: COM1–N.O.1, COM2–N.O.2, ... COM8–N.O.8. That is logically consistent with an 8-position SPST DIP switch. The reverse numbering on the N.O. side (16 down to 9) is also a common dual-row package convention and is consistent with opposite-side terminal pairing.
Footprint review
The footprint contains sixteen pads with designators matching the schematic terminals. The visible silk/fab geometry shows an approximately 22.3 mm long body outline and 7.5 mm body-width outline, matching the datasheet's 8-pole A dimension and body-width reference. The footprint also includes a larger outline consistent with the gull-wing/PCB land span.
Limitations: the layout inspection available in this review did not expose numeric pad coordinates or pad dimensions for each pad, so pad land size and row spacing could not be fully verified from tool output. Based on the visible footprint outline and sixteen-pad count, the footprint appears directionally consistent, but exact pad dimensions should be checked against the Omron recommended PCB pad drawing before release.
Mismatches / issues flagged
  1. Package property wording is incomplete: Project property says 8-DIP, while the datasheet/device is specifically a surface-mount gull-wing slide DIP switch. Recommend using a more explicit package/description such as 8-position SMD DIP switch, 16 gull-wing terminals if property conventions allow.
  2. Pin descriptions are sparse: Terminal properties currently show Pin Type: Unspecified and do not include clear per-pin descriptions. Recommend adding descriptions such as Switch pole 1 common terminal and Switch pole 1 switched terminal for each pair.
  3. Part Type property may be too broad: Electromechanical Components is not wrong, but Switch / DIP Switch would be more precise if available in the property schema.
  4. Footprint pad dimensions not fully machine-verified: The footprint has 16 pads and the outline appears to match, but numeric pad size/spacing was not returned by the layout inspection. Verify pad pitch 2.54 mm, first-to-last center span 17.78 mm, and row/land dimensions against the datasheet before manufacturing.
Verdict
The part metadata, datasheet URL, terminal count, high-level symbol intent, and visible footprint outline are broadly consistent with Omron A6SN-8104. The only actionable issues found are metadata/detail quality issues and the need for final numeric footprint-land verification.
