Linear & Switching Voltage Regulators

REG1117F-3.3/500 Description

The REG1117F-3.3/500 is a fixed output linear regulator designed for applications requiring a stable 3.3V output voltage with a maximum output current of 800mA. Manufactured by Texas Instruments, this regulator is part of the Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMIC) category and is housed in a surface-mount DDPAK package, making it suitable for compact and efficient power supply designs.

This regulator features a maximum input voltage of 15V and a dropout voltage of 1.2V at full load, ensuring efficient operation even under varying input conditions. The quiescent current is kept low at 10mA, contributing to overall power efficiency. Additionally, the regulator offers a high power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) of 62dB at 120Hz, which helps in minimizing noise and ripple in the output voltage.

The REG1117F-3.3/500 includes protection features such as over-current and over-temperature protection, ensuring reliable operation and safeguarding against potential faults. It is REACH unaffected and RoHS3 compliant, adhering to stringent environmental and safety standards. The moisture sensitivity level (MSL) is rated at 2 (1 Year), making it suitable for various manufacturing environments.
