LD1117AG-50-AA3-A-R from UTC Unisonic Tech, in a SOT-223. 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 regulator (GND/ADJ pin - tied to ground on fixed-voltage versions such as this 5.0V part). Quiescent current returns through this pin (typ 5 mA). |
| 2 | VOUT | power_out | Regulated 5.0V output (2.940V min / 3.000V typ / 3.060V max... actually 5.0V nominal for -50 suffix). Output current up to 1.0A (LD1117A). Requires an output capacitor (MLCC supported) for stability. |
| 3 | VIN | power_in | Unregulated input supply. Absolute max 18V, recommended operation up to 15V. For 5.0V output at 1A the input must be at least ~6.2V (dropout 1.20V typ / 1.30V max at 1A). |
| 4 | VOUT (TAB) | power_out | SOT-223 heat-sink tab, electrically common with pin 2 (VOUT). Should be soldered to a copper pour on the PCB to spread heat (θJC = 15 °C/W, θJA = 165 °C/W for SOT-223). |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 614 faces against 75 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.
