PinDatasheet functionCurrent symbol terminalResult
1AnodeA, pin number 1Correct
2CathodeK, pin number 2Correct
3AnodeA, pin number 3Correct
Tab/backsideCathodeNo separate schematic terminalAcceptable because it is internally common with pin 2; footprint/mechanical documentation should make this explicit
The electrical topology is correct: pins 1 and 3 are duplicate anode connections and pin 2/tab are cathode. However, the symbol terminal records have no meaningful Pin Description values, and the schematic component labels are internally generated (K, A::<id>) rather than a clean single diode symbol presentation. Add descriptions such as “Anode”, “Cathode; internally connected to tab/backside”, and “Anode”.
Footprint cross-check
Datasheet mechanical requirements:
  • Three leads on 5.46 mm BSC pitch (e), with 10.92 mm nominal span from pin 1 to pin 3
  • Lead width b: 0.99–1.40 mm
  • Center lead width b2: 1.65–2.39 mm
  • Body: approximately 20.79–21.45 mm long and 15.48–16.24 mm wide
  • Mounting-hole diameter: 3.55–3.65 mm
Observed footprint data:
  • Three footprint pads are spaced approximately 5.5 mm apart, which is consistent with the 5.46 mm nominal pitch.
  • The reported pad size is 7.62 × 3.81 in the layout data, while the reported coordinates and rule units appear inconsistently scaled. This does not correspond to a normal TO-247 lead land pattern and must be visually/dimensionally verified before fabrication.
  • Three additional tiny pads associated with the schematic terminal elements are reported at the origin. These may be part-editor artifacts, but if they are included in manufacturing output they are erroneous duplicates.
  • No verified package body outline, mounting-hole geometry, or courtyard was visible in the inspected layout data.
Flagged mismatches and risks
  1. Missing manufacturer metadata — Manufacturer Name is blank.
  2. Missing part classification — Part Type is blank.
  3. Missing package metadata — TO-247 / TO-247AD is not recorded as a property.
  4. Weak description — Description repeats only the MPN instead of “400 V, 60 A HiPerFRED² fast-recovery diode, TO-247AD”.
  5. Missing pin descriptions — Pin numbers/functions are electrically correct, but descriptive pin metadata is absent.
  6. Footprint geometry requires correction or confirmation — pitch is close, but the exposed pad sizes/unit scaling, duplicate origin pads, absent body outline, and absent mounting hole do not provide confidence that the footprint is manufacturable.
  7. Tab connection should be documented — the metal tab/backside is cathode and must be treated as an electrically live 400 V node in heatsink and enclosure design.
Overall assessment
The MPN, datasheet link, terminal count, and electrical pin mapping are correct. The part is not production-ready because metadata is incomplete and the footprint cannot be validated as a correct TO-247AD land pattern from the current geometry; it should be repaired and rechecked against the datasheet mechanical drawing before use.
