BL1117-CX

BL Shanghai Belling · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-223-4

BL1117-CX from BL Shanghai Belling, in a SOT-223-4. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 GND/ADJ power_in Ground (fixed-output versions) or Adjust feedback pin (BL1117-ADJ). On the ADJ variant this pin sets Vout via an external divider following Vout = 1.25 × (1 + R2/R1) + I_ADJ × R2, with I_ADJ typically 55 µA (max 120 µA).
2 Vout power_out Regulated output. Delivers up to 1A with 1.3V typical dropout at 1A; recommended output capacitor is 10µF tantalum or MLCC (ESR 3mΩ-22Ω). SOT-223 tab is internally connected to this pin.
3 Vin power_in Unregulated input supply. Absolute max 18V (20V for BL1117-12V); recommended input range up to 16V. A 10µF tantalum or MLCC bypass capacitor is recommended close to the pin.

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: BL1117-CX
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-223
  • 3D model: SOT-223-4 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: bl1117-cx-etched.step / bl1117-cx-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); bl1117-cx.step / bl1117-cx.glb are the bare package body.

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
bl1117-cx.step 64 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
bl1117-cx-etched.step 1.1 MB You want the part with BL1117-CX already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 306 faces against 75 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
