digikey
Search DigiKey for electronic components and download datasheets — primary source for prototype orders and the preferred API method for fetching datasheets. Find parts by keyword or MPN, check pricing/stock, download datasheets via API, analyze specifications. Sync and maintain a local datasheets directory — extract components from schematics, download missing datasheets, keep them up to date. Also supports batch MPN-list seeding (`--mpn-list`) for bulk workflows without a KiCad project. Use when the user asks about electronic components, part specs, datasheets, pricing, stock, footprints, or needs to download a datasheet — even without mentioning "DigiKey". Also for "sync datasheets", "download datasheets for my board/project", or mentions a datasheets directory. DigiKey is the default distributor for prototyping. For BOM workflows, see the bom skill.

## Related Skills
| Skill | Purpose |

| `spice` | Uses DigiKey parametric data for behavioral SPICE models |
DigiKey is the **primary source for prototype orders** (Mouser is secondary). Its API returns direct PDF datasheet links, making it the preferred datasheet source. For production orders, see `lcsc`/`jlcpcb`. For BOM management and export workflows, see `bom`.
