LT1121CST-5#PBF

Analog Devices · Linear Voltage Regulators (LDO) · SOT-223-3

LT1121CST-5#PBF from Analog Devices, in a SOT-223-3. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VIN power_in Input supply pin, rated for 30V maximum on the LT1121 and protected against reverse input voltage, and should be bypassed with 0.1µF to 1µF if more than six inches from the main input filter capacitor.
2 GND power_in Ground pin, electrically common with the package tab.
3 OUT power_out Regulated 5V output supplying up to 150mA, which needs an output capacitor (minimum recommended 1µF with ESR of 3Ω or less) for stability and has a 10mA maximum reverse current rating.
