The AMS1117 is a highly popular series of low-dropout (LDO) linear voltage regulators, frequently sold as pre-assembled, breadboard-friendly breakout AMS1117 modules. These modules include necessary input/output filter capacitors and header pins, making them ready to use.
Here you can freely download the AMS117 (3.3V, 5V and ADJ all in single file) module model for proteus simulation from the link below.

1. AMS1117-3.3V Module
- Purpose: Steps down a higher input voltage (typically 5V to 12V) to a steady 3.3V output.
- Common Use Cases: Powering 3.3V microcontrollers and wireless modules like the ESP8266, ESP32, and STM32.
- Key Constraint: Because it is an LDO, dropping voltage from 12V to 3.3V at high currents creates significant heat. It runs most efficiently when powered by a 5V input.
2. AMS1117-5.0V Module
- Purpose: Steps down a higher input voltage (typically 6.5V to 12V) to a fixed 5.0V output.
- Common Use Cases: Powering standard Arduino Uno/Nano boards, 5V sensors, relays, and TTL logic circuits.
- Key Constraint: It requires a minimum input voltage (dropout voltage) of about 6.2V to 6.5V to reliably maintain a stable 5V output.
3. AMS1117-ADJ (Adjustable) Module
- Purpose: Allows the user to customize the output voltage anywhere from 1.25V to 13.8V (depending on the input voltage).
- How it works: Unlike the fixed modules, the ADJ version includes an onboard potentiometer (trimmer) or a specific resistor network connected to the Adjust pin to tune the output.
- Common Use Cases: Prototyping custom or non-standard voltage rails (like 1.8V or 2.5V) and variable bench power supplies.
Video Tutorial: How to Install AMS1117 Proteus Simulation Model
The following video demonstrates how to install and use the AMS1117 3.3V,5V and ADJ version of the modules in Proteus.
These free AMS1117 Proteus Simulation Models are custom-designed virtual components that allow users to test 3.3V, 5V, and adjustable breakout boards directly inside Proteus Design Suite. Because the standard Proteus library often lacks these exact pre-assembled module footprints, these free downloadable models bridge the gap between software design and physical hardware prototyping.
