Server instructions

PCB design assistant — component search, reference boards, sensor recommendation, and design rules. No auth required. Use jlc_search (local DB) as the primary search tool — it's fast, free, and supports parametric filters. Only use jlc_stock_check for real-time stock verification or out-of-stock parts. Use mouser_get_part/digikey_get_part only to cross-reference a specific MPN (daily quota applies). Use sensor_recommend to find sensor ICs/modules by what they measure, protocol, or platform — not for buying parts (use jlc_search for that). Use board_search to find reference board schematics by IC, tag, or text. Use board_get with focus param to see how a specific IC is used (pin-grouped neighborhood). Use get_design_rules for PCB design best practices (power, protection, interfaces, MCUs, layout, EMC).
