Coverage
Coverage is stated one domain at a time and is never rolled up. A domain marked open is a question that has not been answered; it is not a finding that the part is unsuitable. A record with no open domains has not thereby been declared safe.
identity and documented component characteristics
Coverage ID:
cov-c470643-identityStatus: COVERED
Reason: Exact component identity and retained authoritative evidence; installation and firmware are separate.
Facts in this domain:
installed-seating-and-contact-life
Coverage ID:
cov-c470643-open-0Status: OPEN
Reason: Prototype the insertion part in the project 1.6 mm PCB; catalog notation Insertion (t: 2 mm) is retained without treating it as a mandatory substrate thickness; verify mounting, retention, underside clearance, contact behavior and operational life. Manufacturer catalog lists Manual soldering while JLCPCB lists Wave Soldering; resolve the permitted process before fabrication.
Facts in this domain:
Blocked by: no blocking fact is recorded. What is missing has not been reduced to a specific recorded fact, so the reason above is the whole of what is known.
adc-acquisition-calibration-and-firmware
Coverage ID:
cov-c470643-open-1Status: OPEN
Reason: The source impedance and RC values are design calculations; verify ADC sampling, reference, errata, endpoint/inversion calibration, startup and actual programmed behavior.
Facts in this domain:
Blocked by: no blocking fact is recorded. What is missing has not been reduced to a specific recorded fact, so the reason above is the whole of what is known.
Facts
Each fact keeps its value, its unit, the conditions it holds under, where it came from and how far it has been confirmed as separate fields, because they are separate claims. A value without its conditions is not the same fact, and a verdict is about the evidence for the value, not about the part.
RECOMMENDED_OPERATION
The range the manufacturer intends the part to be used in. Always narrower than the absolute maximum.

PROJECT_STATE
A value this project recorded about how the part is used here — a chosen operating point, a net assignment, or a derived figure. Not a manufacturer specification.

fact-c470643-mounting | Integral black 14 mm knob (drawing diameter 14 +/-0.2 mm); 0.9 mm knob thickness; catalog notation Insertion (t: 2 mm); manual soldering | NONE | The project retains a 1.6 mm PCB: seating, retention and solderability require prototype validation; no added knob. | PASS - primary-source confirmed | PRIMARY-SPEC | src-c470643-spec: Product List table RK10J11E0034 row on physical page 1; Drawing No.1 circuit and mounting-hole figures on physical page 2 |
fact-c470643-stops | 270 degrees +/-10 degrees; stopper strength 70 mN m | NONE | Physical stops; clockwise electrical endpoint depends on the viewing/mounting orientation and must be verified on the assembled unit. | PASS - primary-source confirmed | PRIMARY-SPEC | src-c470643-page: Mechanical Performance table: Total rotational angle and Stopper strength rows; Basic information resistance and taper rows |
fact-c470643-project-nets | RV1.1=GND, RV1.3=V3P3, RV1.2=BRIGHT_WIPER through R27 100 Ohm to BRIGHT_ADC=U3.7 PA0; C22 100 nF and R22 100 kOhm connect BRIGHT_ADC to GND.

fact-c470643-adc-design | 10 kOhm +/-30% gives 7-13 kOhm; worst-case divider Thevenin resistance 3.25 kOhm plus R27 100 Ohm = 3.35 kOhm before the parallel 100 kOhm bias. R22 loads the transfer curve and biases an open wiper low; nominal R22 x C22 decay time is 10 ms. | NONE | Engineering calculation from selected values; open wiper is not a guaranteed fault detector. ADC acquisition/reference/errata and endpoint calibration remain prototype gates. | NOT APPLICABLE | PROJECT-CHOICE | src- |
fact-c470643-firmware-target | Absolute brightness from the stopped potentiometer; 160.5-cycle ADC sample-time target, calibration, endpoint/inversion checks and averaging. Startup begins at zero PWM and ramps to the current position while thermal and PD gates remain active. | NONE | Documentation target only; no executable firmware target or flashed behavior is present. | NOT APPLICABLE | PROJECT-CHOICE | src- |

Interactions
Behaviour that is not a property of this part alone. Each interaction names the records it spans, the conditions it holds under, and how far it has been confirmed. An interaction that spans several parts appears on every one of their pages, under the same identifier, because it is equally a fact about each.

Cross-component rules
Rules that span several parts at once and are published in full on the integration page. Each rule's verdict below is that rule's own — it is a statement about the cross-component question, not about this part — and the exact wording of what the rule refuses to conclude is published with the rule itself.
