AMS1086CD-5.0

Advanced Monolithic Systems · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · TO-252-2(DPAK)

AMS1086CD-5.0 from Advanced Monolithic Systems, in a TO-252-2(DPAK). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 GND power_in Device ground / common return. Reference node for the fixed 5.0V output. Connect directly to the ground plane with a low-impedance path.
2 VOUT power_out Regulated 5.0V output (4.900 V to 5.100 V over line/load/temperature). Rated to 1.5 A continuous. Requires a minimum 10 µF output capacitor for loop stability; can operate with as little as 1 µF tantalum since VOUT ≥ 3.0V.
3 VIN power_in Unregulated input supply. Absolute maximum 15 V. For 5.0V output, VIN must be ≥ 6.5 V for the guaranteed spec (dropout ~1.3 V typ, 1.5 V max at 1.5 A). Bypass locally with a 1 µF (or larger) tantalum capacitor.
TAB VOUT power_out Exposed metal tab on the back of the TO-252 package. Electrically tied to VOUT (pin 2) and used as the main heat-sinking / PCB-copper thermal pad. Solder to a copper pour connected to the output net.
