At its core is the popular AMS1117 Low Dropout (LDO) linear regulator chip, which is surface-mounted onto a tiny printed circuit board alongside all the necessary supporting components. \u003cspan class=\"citation-404 citation-end-404\"\u003eIt features pre-soldered input and output filtering capacitors to ensure a clean, noise-free voltage, as well as a convenient onboard LED to let you instantly know that power is flowing.\u003csup class=\"superscript\" data-turn-source-index=\"1\"\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\" id=\"p-rc_d0463a6bb9cd9214-309\"\u003eDesigned specifically for rapid prototyping and easy integration, this module features a simple three-pin header design (Input, Ground, and Output). It takes a slightly higher, unregulated input voltage—such as a 9-Volt battery or a 7.4-Volt lithium polymer pack—and steps it down to a highly accurate, continuous 5 Volts. \u003cspan class=\"citation-403 citation-end-403\"\u003eBecause it is so compact, it can easily be plugged directly into a breadboard or soldered permanently into your custom enclosures to run standard 5-Volt
