Samtec Part Review


I’ll review the current part metadata, find and set an official datasheet URL if missing, then compare the symbol, footprint, and pin descriptions against the datasheet.
I found the official Samtec SSQ catalog and product documents, and the part now resolves as SSQ-119-03-T-D with the official catalog URL set on the project. I’m checking the actual footprint against Samtec’s footprint/print PDFs now.
Created a project doc

Completed the review and set the Datasheet URL to the official Samtec SSQ catalog PDF. I created the detailed findings in Part Datasheet Review — Samtec SSQ-119-03-T-D.
Open items:
  • Description metadata likely needs correction: it mentions gold plating and 8.08 mm stack height, while the reviewed SSQ-119-03-T-D docs indicate matte tin and 8.51 mm REF body height.
  • Terminal pin descriptions are missing, though the 38-pin symbol and footprint geometry otherwise match the Samtec documentation.
Suggested next steps:
  1. Ask me to update the description metadata to match the datasheet.
  2. Ask me to add clear Pin Description properties for terminals 01–38.
  3. Ask me to run a focused 3D model-to-footprint alignment check.
Fix metadata and pins
Update description metadata
Add pin descriptions
Check 3D alignment
Run quality checks
