Can anyone help me identify this component?
« on: November 16, 2013, 12:21:56 am »
I ordered a sample for a high voltage op amp from TI and I got a bunch of these components instead in the anti-static bag. They are clearly not op amps. They are in a SOT223 package.

It could be a TLV1117 LDO

Thank you. And you were absolutely correct. It is the 3.3V (LV) regulator.

Hey, free regulators.

I suppose. I sampled one 90V op amp but I got 25 3.3V regulators. Two of them I burned out (one on purpose and one by accident) while testing.

I imagine they'll send you the right bit if you ask nicely.

I once got a bunch of unidentified SOT223 devices instead of some DIP16 PWM controllers. Just sent them an email explaining the problem and got the correct parts in a matter of days.
Cryptocurrency has taught me to love math and at the same time be baffled by it.

Cryptocurrency lesson 0: Altcoins and Bitcoin are not the same thing.

On a related note, tree, you might want to clean your Nikon's image sensor. ;)
<fellbuendel> it's arduino, you're not supposed to know anything about what you're doing
<fellbuendel> if you knew, you wouldn't be using it

The sensor is fine. I took that picture through a dirty magnifying lens because I don't have a macro lens.

Get some lens spacers. They have no electronic or optics which makes them cheap.
They move the lens spacing outwards so you can focus closer, basically turns any lens into a cheap macro.
