# 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.
