Unexpected kicost behavior: Wrong mouser part for correct part number

[gituser789]

Issue / Problem report

Kicost picks a wrong part number, giving a correct part number in it. I have attached the example xml-file (with only one component).

Inside the xml-file, the correct mouser part number 538-53398-0871 appears, but kicost picks 538-53398-0890 via mouser api. I can not detect any failure in the xml file, as the wrong part number does not exist there. The mouser# field is filled correctly (see attached file). I am using kicost since a while, never hat issues like that. What did i miss? Is the failure inside the mouser API?

1. KiCost v1.1.19
2. No failure on terminal
3. GUI
4. xml-file is attached to this issue

Hi @gituser789 !

Lamentably I can't reproduce it, I get:

I see you don't have a price for it, do you have a Mouser key?

Hi @set-soft,

yes, mouser key is available, see here the screenshot from an unshortened list

Seems like not showing prices when the device is non-stock.

Just checked the file I uploaded again (by downloading my own uploaded file): Still the same result, shows two different material numbers.

python: 3.12
KiCost: v1.1.19
kicost-digikey-api-v3: 0.1.3

I mean the key to access Mouser API in the KiCost config.yaml file. Not the part number for Mouser.
Using the Mouser API I get the correct P/N and the part is in stock.
Also remember to delete the cache entry if you want to retry I query.

API key is from the beginning in ~./config/kicost/config.yaml (can be seen from the screenshot above, as prices for the other components are directly from Mouser API).

After deleting the cache, the BOM creates perfect, see screenshot:

Thanks a lot for your help!

I have deleted the cache by clearing this folder: ~/.cache/kicost/Mouser
Is it useful to add a button delete cache inside the GUI?
