AMS1117-1.2S

UMW · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-89

AMS1117-1.2S from UMW, in a SOT-89. 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 Ground reference for the fixed-output version. On the adjustable variant this pin is the ADJ feedback input; on the AMS1117-1.2 (fixed) it is tied internally as the device ground return.
2 VOUT power_out Regulated 1.2V output (1.176V to 1.224V at IOUT=10mA, VIN=3.2V, TJ=25°C). Rated for up to 1A load current. Requires a 22µF tantalum output capacitor for stability.
3 VIN power_in Unregulated input supply. Absolute maximum 18V; recommended operating input 12V. Typical dropout of 1.2V at 1A, so VIN must exceed VOUT by at least this margin. A 10µF input bypass capacitor is recommended.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
ams1117-1-2s.step 57 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
ams1117-1-2s-etched.step 1.4 MB You want the part with AMS1117-1.2S already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 379 faces against 42 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: UMW datasheet (13 pp, sha256 5ec219092aa45bd9, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: lcsc)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
