LM1117

Texas Instruments · 800 mA LDO regulator (fixed 3.3 V) · SOT-223

An 800 mA low-dropout linear regulator fixed at 3.3 V, in the SOT-223 tab package, TI's take on the ubiquitous 3.3 V rail supply. It regulates a higher input down to 3.3 V with about 1.2 V of dropout at full load, and includes current limiting and thermal shutdown. Like the AMS1117 it needs a 10 uF output capacitor (tantalum or ceramic) for stability, and the tab is the output and heat path. It also comes in adjustable and other fixed voltages; this page is the fixed 3.3 V. Pinout is GND, VOUT (tab), VIN.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 ADJ/GND input Adjust pin for the adjustable (LM1117-ADJ) option: connects to the top of an external resistor divider from VOUT to set VOUT = 1.25 V x (1 + R2/R1); adjust-pin current is 60 uA typical (120 uA max over temperature). For fixed-voltage options this pin is ground (0 V reference).
2 VOUT power_out Regulated output voltage pin, up to 800 mA of load current. Requires a minimum 10-uF tantalum capacitor to GND for output stability and transient response. Electrically the same net as pin 4 and the tab.
3 VIN power_in Unregulated input voltage pin, recommended operating range up to 15 V (absolute max 20 V to GND). Must be at least VOUT + 1.2 V (dropout at 800 mA) for the regulator to remain in regulation. Bypass with an input capacitor close to the pin.
4 VOUT power_out Regulated output voltage pin (same net as pin 2 and the SOT-223 tab). Included on the SOT-223 (DCY) package as a second output lead to help distribute the 800 mA output current.
