LD1117AG-12-AA3-A-R

UTC Unisonic Tech · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-223-4

LD1117AG-12-AA3-A-R from UTC Unisonic Tech, in a SOT-223-4. 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 return for the regulator. In fixed-output variants this pin is tied directly to system ground and carries the quiescent current (~5 mA typ, 10 mA max). Pin assignment 'A' places GND on pin 1 of the SOT-223.
2 VOUT power_out Regulated positive output, 1.2 V nominal (1.176-1.224 V) at up to 1 A for the A-suffix part. Requires an output capacitor (MLCC supported) for stability. This pin is electrically common to the SOT-223 tab.
3 VIN power_in Unregulated positive input, recommended up to 15 V (absolute max 18 V). Dropout voltage is ~1.20 V at 1 A, so VIN must exceed VOUT by at least the dropout across the load range.
TAB VOUT power_out Thermal tab on the SOT-223, electrically connected to VOUT (pin 2). Solder to a copper pour for heat dissipation (θJC = 15 °C/W, θJA = 165 °C/W).
