Product details
Overview
AP1703FWG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3-pin active-low microprocessor reset supervisor IC in SC59 package, with 2.25V reset threshold, 240ms minimum reset timeout, 20µA typical supply current, and guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V. It monitors +2.5V/+3.0V/+3.3V/+5V power rails in embedded controllers and portable systems.
For engineers reviewing the AP1703FWG-7 datasheet, AP1703FWG-7 pinout, AP1703FWG-7 application, or AP1703FWG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (±1.5% at 25°C), push-pull output drive capability (1.2mA sink), transient immunity (100µs/100mV glitch rejection), and RoHS-compliant green SC59 packaging.
Technical Context
The AP1703FWG-7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with internal 240ms delay timer and push-pull output stage. Its reset assertion is triggered when VCC falls below 2.25V (±1.5%), and remains active for ≥240ms after VCC recovers above threshold.
Designed for brownout detection in low-power digital systems, it features 30ppm/°C temperature coefficient, operates from 1.0V to 5.5V supply, and maintains valid logic state on RESET pin down to VCC = 1V - critical for deterministic startup in battery-powered equipment.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.25V ±1.5% - ensures reliable detection of 2.5V rail collapse before system instability |
| Reset Timeout | 240ms min - guarantees sufficient hold time for µP initialization sequences |
| Supply Current | 20µA typ. - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered monitoring circuits |
| VCC Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - supports operation during deep brownout and full-rail conditions |
| Output Type | Push-pull active-low - eliminates external pull-up resistor, reduces BOM count |
| Tempco | 30ppm/°C - maintains threshold stability across -40°C to +105°C industrial range |
| Glitch Immunity | 100µs max at 100mV overdrive - rejects common switching noise without false resets |
Pinout & Package
AP1703FWG-7 is housed in a lead-free, green SC59-3L (SOT-23 compatible) surface-mount package measuring 2.90–3.10mm × 1.50–1.70mm × 1.00–1.30mm, optimized for automated assembly and thermal performance in space-constrained PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for internal comparator and output driver; must be low-impedance connection |
| 2 | VCC | Power supply input; monitors rail voltage and powers internal circuitry |
| 3 | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output; sinks 1.2mA minimum to assert reset on µP / µC |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 2.25V threshold | ±1.5% tolerance ensures accurate detection of 2.5V rail undervoltage without margin overlap |
| 240ms reset timeout | Guaranteed minimum duration satisfies ARM Cortex-M and PIC MCU power-on reset timing requirements |
| 1V valid reset operation | RESET remains logic-low down to VCC = 1V, preventing spurious release during deep brownout recovery |
| No external components | Self-contained supervision eliminates R/C network, reducing layout area and qualification effort |
| Lead-free & green compliant | Meets RoHS Directive Annex exemptions; suitable for automotive and industrial end-equipment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APX809S23-22 | 2.2V threshold, 140ms timeout, SOT23-3 package, 1.5µA IQ | Lower IQ suits ultra-low-power IoT sensors; shorter timeout may not meet legacy MCU specs | Select for new designs prioritizing energy efficiency over backward compatibility |
| TPS3808G12DBVR | 1.23V adjustable threshold via external resistor, 200ms timeout, 2.5µA IQ, higher cost | Configurable threshold supports custom rails; requires external component and layout area | Choose when non-standard supply voltages (e.g., 1.8V) require precise reset point tuning |
Compared with AP1703FWG-7, APX809S23-22 offers superior quiescent current but reduced reset hold time, while TPS3808G12DBVR provides design flexibility at the cost of BOM complexity and unit price - making AP1703FWG-7 optimal for cost-sensitive, fixed-threshold 2.5V system supervision.

FAQ
What is the function of the RESET pin on AP1703FWG-7?
The RESET pin is an active-low push-pull output that drives logic-low when VCC falls below 2.25V, holding that state for ≥240ms after VCC rises above threshold. It sinks up to 1.2mA and requires no external pull-up, directly interfacing with standard CMOS reset inputs on microcontrollers and processors.
Can AP1703FWG-7 operate reliably during fast VCC transients?
Yes - the AP1703FWG-7 ignores negative-going VCC transients ≤100µs in duration when magnitude is ≤100mV below threshold, due to internal comparator hysteresis and glitch filtering. A 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed near the VCC pin further enhances immunity to switching noise.
Is AP1703FWG-7 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - it is qualified for operation from -40°C to +105°C, meets RoHS requirements with lead-free/green packaging, and provides robust reset behavior during cold-crank (low-VCC) and load-dump conditions. However, it is not AEC-Q100 qualified; for certified automotive use, consult Diodes' AEC-Q100 portfolio.
Why does AP1703FWG-7 specify "NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGN"?
This designation reflects Diodes' recommendation to adopt the newer APX809/810 series for new projects due to improved specifications (lower IQ, tighter threshold tolerance, enhanced ESD). AP1703FWG-7 remains fully supported for existing designs and legacy production, with no announced obsolescence.
