Specification:

Features:

🔋 Fixed 5V Output Regulation

• Delivers a stable and reliable 5V output, ideal for powering 5V logic devices, sensors, and microcontrollers.

• Maintains voltage accuracy within ±1% tolerance.

⚙️ Integrated Filtering Capacitors

• Includes input and output capacitors (typically 10µF each) to suppress voltage spikes and filter noise.

• Enhances voltage stability and prevents oscillation during sudden load changes.

🔌 3-Pin Easy Connection Interface

• Clearly labeled VIN, GND, and VOUT pins make wiring straightforward.

• Compatible with jumper wires, female header cables, or direct breadboard mounting.

⚡ Moderate Current Capability

• Supports up to 800mA continuous current and 1A peak under proper cooling.

• Suitable for powering small circuits like sensors, Wi-Fi modules, and microcontrollers.

🧲 Compact and Breadboard-Friendly Design

• Small form factor (approx. 25mm × 10mm) makes it ideal for use in space-constrained projects.

• Fits directly onto a standard breadboard for prototyping ease.

🔥 Thermal Overload and Current Protection

• Built-in thermal shutdown and overcurrent protection in the AMS1117 chip prevent damage due to overheating or short-circuiting.

• Ensures safer and more reliable long-term operation.

🧰 Ideal for Embedded and IoT Projects

• Commonly used to supply power to ESP8266, ESP32, Arduino, Raspberry Pi peripherals, and sensors like DHT11, HC-SR04, etc.

• Helps convert battery or adapter voltage (e.g., 9V, 12V) to usable 5V levels.

🌍 Wide Input Voltage Range

• Accepts input from 6.5V to 12V, making it flexible for use with various power adapters or battery packs.

• Works well with common 9V and 12V wall adapters or DC-DC sources.

💡 Low Output Ripple

• Provides relatively low output ripple (typically <50mV), reducing interference in sensitive analog circuits or RF modules.

🛠️ Plug-and-Play Operation

• No configuration or external components required — simply connect your input voltage and retrieve clean 5V from the output.

Description:

The AMS1117 5V Power Supply Module is a compact, reliable, and easy-to-use linear voltage regulator designed to convert a higher DC voltage (such as 6V–12V) down to a stable 5V output. Built around the AMS1117-5.0 voltage regulator IC, this module is perfect for powering Arduino boards, ESP modules, sensor circuits, breadboards, and other 5V logic systems.

The module features two capacitors for input and output stabilization, and it outputs a fixed 5.0V voltage. It is especially useful for beginners, students, and hobbyists due to its plug-and-play nature and small form factor. The board has 3-pin headers for easy connection: VOUT, GND, and VIN, and it can be mounted directly onto a breadboard or used inline with jumper wires.

This module is not a switching regulator (like buck converters), so it dissipates excess voltage as heat. For lightweight loads (typically <800mA), it works well without a heatsink.
