1 组Manually reviewing hundreds of pages of PDF datasheets, searching line by line for pin definitions and electrical parameters, easily misses critical information, requires multiple back-and-forth reviews, and note organization takes over 1 hour.
One-click scanning of the entire datasheet, automatically extracting all pin definitions, timing diagrams, and register configurations, generating a structured document with a table of contents, completing information retrieval and organization within 3 minutes.

Datasheet Reader
Use this skill when a task depends on a datasheet or technical PDF.
-
Input: local
.pdfpath orhttp(s)URL -
Command:
pcb scan <input> -
Output: stdout is the resolved markdown path
-
Next step: read the markdown file, not the raw PDF
-
Images are linked from the markdown
Workflow
-
Run
pcb scan /path/to/file.pdforpcb scan https://.... -
Capture the printed markdown path.
-
Read the markdown file and work from that artifact.
-
Follow image links only if the task depends on figures, diagrams, or tables.
Examples
pcb scan ./TPS54331.pdf
pcb scan https://www.ti.com/lit/gpn/tca9554
Notes
-
Prefer the minimal invocation above. Do not depend on optional flags unless a task explicitly requires them.
-
If
pcb scanfails, report the failure briefly and then choose the best fallback.
