LT1521IST-5#PBF

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

LT1521IST-5#PBF from Analog Devices, in a SOT-223. 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 IN power_in Input supply pin, with ±20V absolute maximum, that should be bypassed with 1µF to 10µF if far from the main filter capacitor and that blocks reverse current when the input is reversed.
2 GND power_in Ground pin of the ST package, electrically common with the tab.
3 OUT power_out Regulated 5V output supplying up to 300mA, requiring a minimum output capacitor of 1.5µF to prevent oscillations.
