LT3021ES8#PBF

Analog Devices · Linear Voltage Regulators (LDO) · SO-8

LT3021ES8#PBF from Analog Devices, in a SO-8. 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 NC unconnected No connect; this pin may be left floating, tied to IN, or tied to GND.
2 OUT power_out Supplies power to the load and requires a minimum output capacitor of 3.3μF to prevent oscillations.
3 ADJ input Inverting input to the error amplifier with a 200mV reference referred to GND and a typical 20nA bias current flowing out of the pin.
4 AGND power_in Analog ground.
5 SHDN input Pulling this pin low turns the output off; it can be driven by logic or an open collector/drain with a pull-up resistor, should be connected to VIN if unused, and the device does not function if it is left unconnected.
6 PGND power_in Power ground.
7 NC unconnected No connect; this pin may be left floating, tied to IN, or tied to GND.
8 IN power_in Supplies power to the device, withstands reverse voltages with respect to ground and OUT, and needs a 3.3μF to 10μF bypass capacitor if it is more than six inches from the main input filter capacitor.
