Search LCSC Electronics for electronic components — find parts by LCSC number (Cxxxxx) or MPN, check stock/pricing, download datasheets, analyze specifications. Sister company to JLCPCB, same parts library. Sync and maintain a local datasheets directory for a KiCad project. No API key needed — uses the free jlcsearch community API. Use this skill when the user mentions LCSC, JLCPCB parts library, JLCPCB assembly parts, production sourcing, Cxxxxx part numbers, needs to find LCSC equivalents for parts, is preparing a BOM for JLCPCB assembly, or wants to download datasheets and LCSC is available. For package cross-reference tables and BOM workflow, see the `bom` skill.

# LCSC Electronics — Component Search, Datasheets & Ordering LCSC is JLCPCB's sister company — they share the same parts library and `Cxxxxx` part numbers. Use LCSC for **production sourcing** (assembled boards from JLCPCB/PCBWay). DigiKey/Mouser are for prototyping. For BOM management and export workflows, see `bom`. ## Key Differences from DigiKey/Mouser - **No API key needed** — jlcsearch community API is free and open - **Lower prices** — especially for passives and Chinese-manufactured ICs - **JLCPCB integration** — same LCSC part numbers used in JLCPCB assembly BOMs - **Direct PDF downloads** — LCSC's CDN (wmsc.lcsc.com) serves datasheets without bot protection - **Low MOQ** — many parts available in quantities as low as 1 - **Warehouses** — Shenzhen (JS), Zhuhai (ZH), Hong Kong (HK) - **Website**: `https://www.lcsc.com` ## LCSC Part Numbers Format: `Cxxxxx` (e.g., `C14663`). This is the universal identifier across both LCSC and JLCPCB. Use it for: - Direct ordering on LCSC - BOM matching in JLCPCB assembly (see `jlcpcb` skill) - Cross-referencing between platforms ## jlcsearch API Reference The jlcsearch community API is the recommended way to search LCSC. **No authentication required.** **Base URL:** `https://jlcsearch.tscircuit.com` ### General Search ``` GET /api/search?q=<query>&limit=20&full=true ``` Parameters: - `q` — search query (matches MPN, LCSC code, or description keywords) - `package` — optional footprint filter (e.g., `0402`) - `limit` — max r
