53-66: Consider adding cross-references to voltage specifications.The configuration documentation is clear and well-explained. The analog reference and voltage specifications are accurately documented.
Consider adding cross-references to Arduino board specifications for the different voltage levels (3.3V vs 5V) to help users identify their board's voltage.
68-100: Consider adding a pin mapping table.The GPIO configuration is well documented with clear examples and important hardware limitations noted.
Consider adding a table that maps the pin numbers to their Arduino designations (e.g., A0 = 14) for easier reference.
Line range hint
150-286: Consider adding simpler starter examples.The comprehensive example effectively demonstrates the component's capabilities and proper configuration.
Consider adding a simpler "Getting Started" example that focuses on basic setup before presenting this comprehensive example.

102-124: LGTM! Clear and comprehensive sensor documentation.
The sensor configuration is well documented with clear explanations of voltage references and raw values.
Line range hint 1-286: Documentation successfully updated for external component.
The documentation has been successfully updated to reflect the new external component approach. The changes are well-structured, technically accurate, and provide clear guidance for users.
31-37: LGTM! Verify the external component repository.
The external component configuration is correctly documented. The YAML structure is valid and the repository URL is properly formatted.
Let's verify the external component repository exists and is accessible:
✅ Verification successful
External component repository and implementation verified
The external component configuration is correctly documented. I've verified that:
- The repository
glmnet/esphome-componentsexists and is accessible - The
arduino_port_expandercomponent is present in the repository with proper implementation files:__init__.pyarduino_port_expander.cpparduino_port_expander.hsensor/directory
The documentation accurately reflects the external component source and the component name matches the actual implementation.
