Product Overview
LM1117IMPX-3.3-NOPB is the Texas Instruments LM1117I-3.3 fixed-output member of the LM1117 low-dropout linear regulator family. The device is specified as a 3.3 V regulator with an 800 mA output current capability and ±1% band-gap reference accuracy. The family also includes fixed 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V outputs, plus an adjustable version covering 1.25 V to 13.8 V with two external resistors.
For operation, the recommended VIN-to-GND maximum is 15 V, while the absolute maximum input rating is 20 V. The LM1117I operating junction temperature range is -40°C to 125°C, with an absolute maximum junction temperature of 150°C and storage range of -65°C to 150°C. Protection functions include current limiting and thermal shutdown, and power dissipation is internally limited.
The part uses the DCY SOT-223 package with 4 pins and a 6.50 mm × 3.50 mm nominal body. SOT-223 pin 3 is VIN, pins 2 and 4/tab are VOUT, and pin 1 is ADJ/GND, serving as ground for the fixed-output option. A 10 µF minimum tantalum output capacitor is required for transient response and stability.
