The AMS1117 is a 1 A low-dropout linear regulator available in fixed (1.2–5.0 V) and adjustable versions with SOT-223, TO-252, and SO-8 packages.
Product Overview
The AMS1117 is a widely used LDO that delivers a stable DC output from a higher DC input, up to 1 A with a maximum dropout of 1.3 V at full load. It is offered in fixed 1.2 / 1.5 / 1.8 / 2.5 / 2.85 / 3.3 / 5.0 V outputs and an adjustable variant referenced to 1.25 V, making it a common choice for post-regulation and 5 V-to-3.3 V conversion.
Newfly supplies verified, RoHS-compliant AMS1117-class regulator ICs with cross-reference and BOM-matching support for production sourcing.
