Part Audit Review

flux

I’ll audit the part metadata, locate the official Samtec datasheet if needed, update the Datasheet property, then verify the symbol, footprint, and pin definitions against it.

flux

I’m reading the current part definition and footprint geometry first, so the datasheet comparison is based on the actual stored symbol and pads.

flux

The core geometry checks out: seven through-hole pads on 2.54 mm pitch and the body outline matches the Samtec drawing. I’m documenting the remaining metadata and pin-definition gaps now.

Audit complete. The 7-pad, single-row footprint matches the Samtec drawing for pitch, body dimensions, and pin span; the existing datasheet was valid, so no URL change was required. Main flags are unspecified pin types, missing pin descriptions, and incomplete/ambiguous connector package and mount metadata; drill and pad diameters could not be confirmed from the drawing.

CheckResult
Terminal countPass: 7 terminals are present, numbered 1 through 7.
Pin numberingPass: numbering is sequential and corresponds one-to-one with footprint pads.
Electrical pin typeMismatch: every terminal is Unspecified; connector contacts should normally be Passive.
Pin descriptionsMismatch: no useful pin descriptions are defined. Each terminal should at least identify the corresponding socket contact, e.g. Contact 1 through Contact 7.
Symbol organizationPass: seven separate terminal symbols are arranged in order.
Connector designatorPass: project-level prefix is J.

Property review and flagged issues
  1. Package information is incomplete. There is no explicit package/case property describing a 1×7, 2.54 mm pitch, through-hole socket strip.
  2. Mount property is semantically incorrect or ambiguous. Socket describes connector gender/type, not PCB mounting technology. The mounting method is through-hole.
  3. Connector-specific properties are absent. Recommended metadata includes connector type/socket strip, gender/receptacle, pitch 2.54 mm, positions 7, rows 1, and through-hole mount.
  4. Pin electrical types are unspecified. All seven pins should be passive for normal connector ERC behavior.
  5. Pin descriptions are missing. The datasheet does not assign signal functions, but generic contact descriptions should still be present.
  6. Part type uses plural Connectors. The standard canonical type is typically Connector; this is a metadata normalization issue rather than an electrical error.
  7. Datasheet URL exists and is readable. No URL update was required. It points to a hosted copy of the official Samtec mechanical drawing rather than directly to samtec.com.
Overall assessment
The footprint's critical mechanical pattern is consistent with the Samtec SSQ-107-01-G-S drawing: pad count, pitch, row arrangement, pin span, and body outline all match. The main deficiencies are metadata quality and schematic terminal definitions, not confirmed footprint geometry errors. The drill and pad diameters remain unverified because the manufacturer drawing reviewed does not provide a recommended PCB land pattern.
