AMS1117A-ADJ

HX(hengjiaxing) · Linear Voltage Regulators (LDO) · SOT-223

AMS1117A-ADJ from HX(hengjiaxing), 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 ADJ input Adjust pin (labelled Vss/ADJ) of the AMS1117A-ADJ that sets Vout=1.25×(1+R2/R1)+IAdj×R2 via an external divider, with typical IAdj of 55uA (max 120uA) and an optional CADJ bypass capacitor to ground for ripple rejection.
2 VOUT power_out Regulated output (1.25V to 12V adjustable) delivering up to 1A with dropout of 1.3V typ. at 100mA and 1.5V max at 1A, needing a 10uF capacitor for stability and at least 2mA (max 10mA) minimum load.
3 VIN power_in Input supply with recommended maximum of 15V and absolute maximum of 18V, bypassed with a 10uF capacitor.
