REG1117A-1.8

Texas Instruments · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-223-4

REG1117A-1.8 from Texas Instruments, in a SOT-223-4. 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 GND power_in Ground reference pin for the fixed-voltage REG1117A-1.8 (labelled Adj. on the adjustable model).
2 VOUT power_out Regulated output voltage of 1.8V; the REG1117A supplies up to 1A max with 1.3V max dropout at IO = 1A.
3 VIN power_in Unregulated input supply; absolute maximum input voltage is +15V and the regulator needs about 1V-1.3V input-output differential for regulation at 1A.
4 VOUT (tab) power_out Mounting tab, electrically connected to VOUT and used for heat sinking through the board copper; the datasheet gives JA of about 49°C/W with solid backside copper.
