Part Datasheet Review and Update

A

adrian95

Review all available part information (MPN, package, pin count, description, properties). If no datasheet URL is already set, search the web for the official datasheet and update the part's Datasheet property with the URL. Then cross-check the schematic symbol, footprint, and pin descriptions against the datasheet. Summarize key specs and flag any mismatches.

I’ll review the part metadata, find and set the official datasheet if missing, then cross-check symbol, footprint, and pin descriptions against the datasheet.

Reviewed the part against the official Analog Devices datasheet; the Datasheet URL was already set correctly, so no update was needed. Key issue: the project symbol/footprint has 26 pins/pads, but MAX25240AFFF/VY+ is a 22-pin FC2QFN part, and the package property is incorrectly set to TO.
Full findings are saved in the project document: part-datasheet-review-max25240afffvyplus.
Suggested next steps:
  1. Remove invalid pins/pads 23–26.
  2. Update package metadata to 22 FC2QFN / F224A4FY+1.
  3. Regenerate the footprint from ADI land pattern 90-100137.
  4. Populate pin descriptions from the datasheet pin table.

Cross-check results
Metadata / properties
  • Mismatch: Project context reports Pads: 26, but datasheet package is 22-pin FC2QFN.
  • Mismatch: Project property Package or Case Code is set to TO; datasheet package should be 22 FC2QFN, package code F224A4FY+1.
  • OK: Manufacturer Name matches Analog Devices.
  • OK: MPN MAX25240AFFF/VY+ matches the datasheet ordering table.
  • OK: Datasheet URL points to the official Analog Devices datasheet.
Schematic symbol
  • Mismatch: Symbol currently has 26 terminal components, while the datasheet pinout has 22 pins.
  • Mismatch: Pins 23–26 exist in the symbol but do not exist in the datasheet:
    • Pin 23: PGND1_3
    • Pin 24: PGND2_3
    • Pin 25: EN_2
    • Pin 26: AGND_2
  • Mismatch: Pin descriptions are not populated; every terminal shows Pin Type: Unspecified and lacks datasheet function descriptions.
  • Mostly OK: Pins 1–22 names broadly match the 22-pin datasheet pin map, including duplicated supply/ground/output pins where expected.
Footprint
  • Mismatch: Footprint contains 26 pads, but the official MAX25240AFFF/VY+ package is 22-pin FC2QFN.
  • Cannot fully verify geometry from available layout output: The layout inspection exposed pad node names but not numeric pad geometry. However, the pad count mismatch alone is sufficient to flag the footprint as incompatible with the official land pattern.
  1. Remove invalid schematic terminals/pads 23–26: PGND1_3, PGND2_3, EN_2, AGND_2.
  2. Update package metadata from TO to 22 FC2QFN / F224A4FY+1.
  3. Replace or regenerate the footprint using Analog Devices land pattern 90-100137 / outline 21-100399.
  4. Populate pin descriptions and pin types from the datasheet table above.
  5. Re-run a part review after correcting the symbol and footprint.
