Hey people.
I am designing a circuit for my home automation system. To give a gist, I have a 12V 3.5A supply. I need to operate multiple loads off it.
One of the Loads is a ESp12E module.
Esp12e module ----- Max current pull = 350mA. Voltage = 3.3V.
For this purpose, I am using a regulator AMS1117-3.3
Following is my circuit diagram:
My Problem is, with this connection, the AMS1117-3.3 regulator is heating up and hence blowing up. I have read the datasheet and it says "Max output current = 1A"
What can be the problem?
