AX1117A
1A Low Dropout Linear Regulator
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AX1117A is a low dropout positive adjustable or fixed-mode regulator with minimum of
1A output current capability. The product is specifically designed to provide well-regulated
supply for low voltage IC applications such as high-speed bus termination and low current
3.3V logic supply. AX1117A is also well suited for other applications such as VGA cards.
AX1117A is guaranteed to have lower than 1.4V dropout at full load current making it ideal to
provide well-regulated outputs of 1.25 to 5.0 with 6.4V to 12V input supply.

(Note)
Note: To prevent oscillation, a 4.7uF minimum Y5V or a 1uF minimum X7R or X5R dielectric is strongly
recommended if ceramics are used as input/output capacitors.

Note1: See thermal regulation specifications for changes in output voltage due to heating effects. Line and load
regulation are measured at a constant junction temperature by low duty cycle pulse testing. Load
regulation is measured at the output lead = 1/18” from the package.
Note2: Line and load regulation are guaranteed up to the maximum power dissipation of 15W. Power dissipation
is determined by the difference between input and output differential and the output current. Guaranteed
maximum power dissipation will not be available over the full input/output range.
Note3: Quiescent current is defined as the minimum output current required in maintaining regulation. At 12V
input/output differential the device is guaranteed to regulate if the output current is greater than 10mA.
