| Part | Material | Colour / plating | Datasheet says | Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| housing | abs |  | ingestion or absorption of GaAs can harm the human body, so handle the product with | 7 |

## CAD (KiCad official)

- Symbol: `APW216E`
- Footprint: `Package_DIP:DIP-8_W7.62mm`
- 3D model: DIP-8 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
- 3D model files: `apw216e-etched.step` / `apw216e-etched.glb` carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable `Adom.LaserEtch` group (Fusion-ready); `apw216e.step` / `apw216e.glb` are the bare package body.
