What problem does it solve?
The DigiKey skill streamlines component discovery and datasheet retrieval by using DigiKey's API to search parts, fetch direct datasheet URLs, and download PDFs for BOM planning and KiCad project work, while providing a local datasheets directory synchronized with an index for incremental updates.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Efficient DigiKey API searches by Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) or keywords to locate components and datasheets.
- Download and validate datasheets as PDFs, with URL normalization to handle redirects and JS-based downloads.
- Synchronize a local datasheets directory alongside KiCad projects, maintaining an index.json for incremental updates and status tracking.
- Fallback to alternative sources when primary URLs fail and perform verification to detect wrong or missing datasheets.
Quick Start
Run the DigiKey datasheet sync workflow to fetch PDFs for parts identified in your KiCad schematic and save them to a local datasheets folder.
