Registry App

The Registry app is the web interface for managing your part library. Use it when you want to browse the available parts and schematic modules, or when you want to build new ones.

Browsing the Registry

The Parts section of the registry shows the contents of the registry. Registry sidebar showing the Diode registry with Components and Modules under Parts The Parts section has two views: Components and Modules. Use Components when you are looking for a physical part. Use Modules when you are looking for a reusable circuit block. Use the table headers to sort by preferred status, name, description, version, footprint, manufacturer, or recency where those fields apply.

Components

Components are physical parts. A component page can show the part symbol, footprint, 3D model, manufacturer metadata, MPN, package image, and sourcing details. This is the view to use before copying a component into a board or adding it as a dependency. Registry component view showing symbol, footprint, 3D model, and part metadata

Modules

Modules are reusable circuits built from components and other modules. A module page focuses on the schematic entrypoint and the package relationships that explain what the module includes.

You can search by part number or free-form description. For a more interactive search experience, press the chat button at the top right to ask an agent about available parts.

Inspect Packages

Select a package to open the package viewer. The viewer prepares a read-only sandbox for the selected package and renders the package entrypoint when one is available. The package sidebar includes registry metadata and package relationships:
  • Includes: packages this package depends on.
  • Used by: packages that depend on this package.
Those relationship links are useful for understanding the blast radius of a component or module change before editing it.

Adding Packages

To add or update components in your library, use a sandbox. A sandbox is a branch of your component library that you can iterate on with an agent before merging your changes in. To create a sandbox, press the ”+” button next to “Sandboxes” in the left bar. Then, just ask the agent for what you would like to do. Here’s a few ideas to get you started:
  1. Help me find and add a buck converter for a 24 V input, 5 V output, and at least 2 A load current.
  2. Let’s add TPSM86638RCGR to the registry.
  3. Rearrange the TCAN3403DRQ1 symbol into multiple units so the CAN bus pins, logic pins, and power pins can be placed separately.
