Part Review Audit


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 URL if missing, then compare the symbol/footprint/pins against the datasheet and summarize any mismatches.

RP20-2405SFW Part Review

View Document

Date: 2026-07-13 | Field | Existing value | Review |
Completed the RP20-2405SFW review and saved the detailed findings in RP20-2405SFW Part Review. The symbol pinout and 6-pin through-hole footprint match the RECOM datasheet; the main issues flagged are incomplete pin descriptions/types, broad part categorization, cosmetic footprint naming, and a stored datasheet URL variant versus the web-confirmed official RECOM path.
Open items:
  • Datasheet URL was already set, so I did not change it.
  • Pin Type / Pin Description metadata remains incomplete.
Suggested next steps:
  1. Ask me to add proper pin descriptions and pin electrical types.
  2. Ask me to normalize the datasheet URL to the web-confirmed RECOM path.
  3. Ask me to improve part categorization/search metadata.

Footprint Cross-Check
Datasheet mechanical/pinning values extracted:
  • Body: 50.8 mm x 25.4 mm.
  • Pin pitch basis: 8 x 2.54 mm = 20.32 mm between left and right pin columns.
  • Pin diameter: 1.0 mm +/- 0.1 mm.
  • Pin count: 6.

Mismatches / Issues Flagged
  1. Pin descriptions and pin electrical types are incomplete in Flux: all six terminals show Pin Type = Unspecified and no explicit Pin Description property, even though the datasheet clearly defines power input, power output, trim, and CTRL functions.
  2. Part Type is broad: it is set to Integrated Circuits, while the part is specifically an isolated board-mount DC/DC converter module. This is a metadata categorization issue, not a pinout/footprint error.
  3. Footprint asset/module naming omits hyphens: RP202405SFW.kicad_mod / RP202405SFW versus MPN RP20-2405SFW. This is cosmetic but could affect searchability.
  4. Datasheet URL is already present, but the web-confirmed official RECOM PDF path uses Powerline_DC-DC while the stored property uses Powerline-DC-DC. Since the existing datasheet is readable in Flux, this was not treated as a blocking mismatch.
Overall Result
The schematic symbol pin numbers, terminal names, and 6-pad through-hole footprint match the RECOM RP20-2405SFW datasheet. The main improvements to make are metadata quality fixes: add pin descriptions/types, consider changing the part type/category to a DC/DC converter module category if available, and optionally align the datasheet URL/footprint naming with the official RECOM naming.
