Product details
Overview
IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 from Infineon is a fixed-output 3.3 V, 1.0 A low-dropout linear voltage regulator in PG-SOT223 package, featuring ±2% output accuracy, <1.2 V dropout at 800 mA, short-circuit and overtemperature protection, and operation up to 125 °C junction temperature - used in industrial power rails for microcontrollers and sensors.
For engineers reviewing the IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 datasheet, IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 pinout, IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 application, or IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at full load, thermal resistance (RthJA = 164 K/W bare footprint), stability with ≥10 µF/ESR ≤20 Ω output capacitor, and input voltage range (4.7–15 V) for reliable 3.3 V regulation.
Technical Context
The IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 is a monolithic NPN-based LDO regulator with internal reference (1.25 V), error amplifier, and pass transistor. It delivers regulated 3.3 V output without external feedback components, relying on internal trimming for ±2% tolerance across 0–125 °C.
Protection circuitry includes foldback current limiting (1100–2250 mA trip), thermal shutdown activation at ~150 °C junction temperature, and safe operating area enforcement. Its SOT223-4 package integrates the tab as an extension of the output pin for PCB heatsinking.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.3 V ±2% - ensures stable supply for 3.3 V logic interfaces and MCU cores under load and temperature variation. |
| Max Output Current | 1.0 A - supports moderate-power digital subsystems without external boost stages. |
| Dropout Voltage | 1.10 V @ 800 mA - enables operation from 4.7 V input when delivering full rated current. |
| PSRR | 65 dB @ 120 Hz - suppresses ripple from upstream switching supplies feeding the LDO input. |
| Thermal Resistance (RthJA) | 164 K/W (bare footprint) - requires careful PCB copper area planning for continuous 1 A operation at elevated ambient. |
| Operating Junction Temp | 0 to 125 °C - qualified for industrial environments without derating below 125 °C. |
| Output Noise | 30 ppm RMS (10 Hz–10 kHz) - suitable for noise-sensitive analog peripherals like ADC references. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-SOT223-4 (leadless variant of SOT-223), with exposed thermal tab electrically connected to pin 2 (Q) and pin 4 (TAB).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for internal bandgap and error amplifier; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 2 | Q (Output) | Regulated 3.3 V output; connects to 10 µF/ESR ≤20 Ω ceramic or tantalum capacitor for stability. |
| 3 | I (Input) | Unregulated DC input (4.7–15 V); requires local 100 nF decoupling near pin. |
| 4 (TAB) | Q (Output / Thermal Pad) | Electrically tied to pin 2; must be soldered to ≥300 mm² copper pour for thermal relief (RthJC = 4 K/W). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 3.3 V output | No external resistors required - simplifies BOM and layout for dedicated 3.3 V rail generation. |
| Integrated overtemperature shutdown | Halts output above ~150 °C junction temperature and auto-recovers upon cooling - prevents thermal runaway in enclosed enclosures. |
| Short-circuit foldback current limit | Reduces output current to ~1.1 A during fault, limiting power dissipation and enabling safe restart after fault clearance. |
| RoHS-compliant green product | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU - supports environmental compliance for industrial and medical end equipment. |
| Stable with low-ESR capacitors | Guaranteed stability with COUT ≥10 µF and ESR ≤20 Ω - compatible with cost-effective polymer and ceramic capacitors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV1117-33CDCYR | Lower max current (800 mA), higher dropout (1.2 V @ 800 mA), RthJA = 199 K/W (SOT-223) | Limited to lower-power applications; less thermal headroom in compact layouts | Choose if cost sensitivity outweighs 200 mA current margin and thermal performance needs |
| LD1117S33TR | Same 1.0 A rating but ±2% tolerance only at 25 °C; wider temp drift (±3% over -40 to 125 °C) | May require additional margin in wide-temp industrial deployments | Prefer when operating exclusively at room temperature or where tighter initial tolerance is sufficient |
Compared with TLV1117-33CDCYR and LD1117S33TR, the IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 provides superior thermal performance (RthJA = 164 K/W), guaranteed ±2% tolerance across full temperature range, and higher short-circuit current capability - making it optimal for thermally constrained, high-reliability industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for 1.0 A output at 3.3 V?
The IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 requires a minimum input voltage of 4.7 V to sustain 1.0 A output current while maintaining regulation. This accounts for its typical dropout voltage of 1.10–1.40 V across the load range, verified per datasheet Table 5 characteristics at Tj = 25 °C and full load.
Can this device be used without an output capacitor?
No. The IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 requires a minimum 10 µF output capacitor with ESR ≤20 Ω for stability, as specified in Table 1 and Figure 5. Omitting it risks oscillation or thermal shutdown due to loop instability, especially under dynamic load conditions.
Is the thermal pad (pin 4) electrically isolated?
No. Pin 4 (TAB) is electrically connected to pin 2 (Q/output) and must be soldered to a PCB copper pour tied to the 3.3 V output net. This dual role provides both thermal conduction and electrical continuity - isolation would compromise thermal performance and violate the device's internal topology.
Does this part support reverse polarity protection?
No. The IFX1117MEV33HTMA1 lacks integrated reverse-polarity protection. Applying reverse voltage (>−0.3 V on pin 3 relative to pin 1) exceeds absolute maximum ratings and may cause permanent damage. External protection diodes or MOSFET-based circuits are required for such scenarios.
