Product Overview

LM1117MPX-3.3 is a Texas Instruments fixed-output low-dropout linear regulator for 3.3 V power rails. It is specified as an 800-mA device, with output voltage characterized at 3.267 V minimum, 3.3 V typical, and 3.333 V maximum at IOUT = 10 mA, VIN = 5 V, and TJ = 25°C. Across 0 mA to 800 mA, 4.75 V to 10 V input, and 0°C to 125°C junction temperature, the output range is specified from 3.235 V to 3.365 V.

The regulator supports input operation up to 15 V as a recommended condition, with 20 V listed as the absolute maximum rating from VIN to GND. Dropout voltage is specified at 1.1 V typical at 100 mA, 1.15 V typical at 500 mA, and 1.2 V typical at 800 mA. Line regulation is 1 mV typical, and load regulation is 1 mV typical under the stated LM1117-3.3 test conditions.

The SOT-223 DCY package uses pin 3 for input, pin 2 and TAB for output, and pin 1 for ground on the fixed-output option. The output requires a 10 µF minimum tantalum capacitor for transient response and stability. Protection functions include current limiting and thermal shutdown.

Procurement Notes

When requesting a quote for LM1117MPX-3.3, buyers should confirm the manufacturer, package or case, required quantity, target date code, compliance documents, packing method, destination country and expected delivery schedule.

If alternatives are acceptable, buyers should share the approved vendor list, required electrical or optical limits, package constraints and qualification requirements. Any alternative part should be reviewed by the buyer's engineering team before production use.

For power IC and power device sourcing, voltage rating, current rating, power dissipation, package thermal performance, protection features, qualification grade and application conditions should be reviewed before approval.

FAQ

What output voltage does LM1117MPX-3.3 provide?

LM1117MPX-3.3 is specified as a fixed 3.3 V regulator. Under LM1117-3.3 test conditions of IOUT = 10 mA, VIN = 5 V, and TJ = 25°C, output voltage is 3.267 V minimum, 3.3 V typical, and 3.333 V maximum.

What output capacitor is required for this regulator?

The extracted datasheet facts specify a 10 µF minimum tantalum capacitor at the output. This capacitor is required for transient response and stability, so the output capacitor selection is part of the regulator operating requirement.

What are the SOT-223 pin assignments?

For the fixed-output SOT-223 package option, pin 3 is the input, pin 2 and the TAB are the output, and pin 1 is ground. These assignments apply to the SOT-223 package listed for LM1117MPX-3.3.

What protection functions are included?

The device feature description lists current limiting and thermal shutdown. Current limit is specified at 800 mA minimum, 1200 mA typical, and 1500 mA maximum with VIN - VOUT = 5 V at TJ = 25°C.
