Product details
Overview
APX803-23SRG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3-pin microprocessor reset supervisor IC with 2.25 V reset threshold, open-drain active-low RESET output, and 200 ms typical reset timeout period. It monitors VCC supply voltage in 3.3 V and 5 V digital systems, asserts reset on power-up and brownout, and guarantees valid reset operation down to VCC = 1 V. Used in portable controllers and embedded microcontroller systems requiring reliable power-on initialization.
For engineers reviewing the APX803-23SRG-7 datasheet, APX803-23SRG-7 pinout, APX803-23SRG-7 application, or APX803-23SRG-7 equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, SOT23-SR package mapping, reset timing behavior, supply current (30 µA typ), and direct alternatives for 2.25 V threshold supervisory use cases.
Technical Context
The APX803-23SRG-7 implements a precision voltage comparator with 2.25 V ±0.04 V threshold at +25°C and 30 ppm/°C tempco, coupled to a fixed internal timer that holds RESET low for ≥140 ms after VCC rises above threshold. Its open-drain output requires an external pull-up and supports bidirectional reset interfaces.
It operates across -40°C to +85°C ambient, draws only 30 µA typical supply current, and maintains guaranteed RESET validity (logic low) for VCC ≥ 1 V. The device ignores fast VCC transients and features hysteresis of 40 mV to prevent chatter during threshold crossing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.25 V (typ), ±0.04 V tolerance at +25°C - sets precise brownout detection point for 2.5 V logic rails |
| Reset Timeout | 200 ms (typ), ≥140 ms min - ensures sufficient hold time for full µP initialization before release |
| Supply Current | 30 µA (typ) at VCC = 3.3 V - enables battery-powered operation without significant drain |
| Operating VCC Range | 1.1 V to 5.5 V - supports valid reset assertion even during deep brownout or low-voltage startup |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low RESET - allows wired-OR configuration and level-shifting across supply domains |
| Reset Hysteresis | 40 mV - prevents oscillation during slow VCC recovery near threshold |
| Tempco | 30 ppm/°C - ensures stable threshold over industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) |
Pinout & Package
APX803-23SRG-7 is housed in a RoHS-compliant, halogen-free SOT23-3 (SR) package with gull-wing leads and standard JEDEC MO-178 footprint. Thermal resistance is θJA = 201°C/W on FR-4 with 2 oz copper.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for internal comparator and output driver; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 2 (VCC) | Supply voltage input | Monitored power rail input; powers internal circuitry and defines reset threshold reference |
| 3 (RESET) | Open-drain reset output | Active-low signal asserted during power-up/brownout; requires external pull-up resistor to monitored or host supply |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 2.25 V threshold | ±0.04 V tolerance at +25°C with 30 ppm/°C drift - eliminates need for external trimming in 2.5 V system monitoring |
| 200 ms reset timeout | Guaranteed ≥140 ms minimum - satisfies boot-time requirements of ARM Cortex-M0/M3 and PIC16/18 microcontrollers |
| 30 µA supply current | Typical draw at 3.3 V - extends battery life in portable instrumentation and handheld controllers |
| Valid reset down to VCC = 1 V | Ensures deterministic state during deep undervoltage - prevents spurious release before full power recovery |
| Open-drain output | Supports multi-source reset arbitration and level translation - enables single RESET line for mixed-supply SoCs |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controller | Portable Medical Monitor |
|---|---|

Use Value: 2 kV HBM ESD rating and -40°C to +85°C operation ensure robustness in under-hood thermal cycling environments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APX803-23SAG-7 | Same 2.25 V threshold and 200 ms timeout, but uses SA (not SR) SOT23 variant with identical pinout but different leadframe geometry | No functional difference; SA variant has marginally higher θJA (210°C/W vs. 201°C/W) due to pad layout | Select SA if legacy board design uses SA footprint; SR preferred for new layouts per Diodes' updated thermal recommendations |
| TPS3808G12DBVR | 2.5 V threshold, 200 ms timeout, push-pull output, 1.4 µA quiescent current - lower power but incompatible output drive type | Requires redesign of pull-up network; not drop-in due to active-high default and no open-drain capability | Choose only if ultra-low power (<2 µA) is critical and system supports push-pull reset signaling |
Compared with APX803-23SAG-7, the SR package offers improved thermal performance on standard PCBs; compared with TPS3808G12DBVR, APX803-23SRG-7 provides essential open-drain flexibility for multi-source reset buses but consumes more supply current.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for APX803-23SRG-7 at room temperature?
The APX803-23SRG-7 has a nominal reset threshold of 2.25 V at +25°C, with a guaranteed range of 2.21 V to 2.30 V per datasheet DS32131 Rev. 3. This value is factory-trimmed and specified across the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) with 30 ppm/°C tempco.
Does APX803-23SRG-7 require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
Yes - the RESET pin is open-drain active-low and must be pulled up externally. Typical values are 10 kΩ to the monitored VCC rail or to a separate logic supply. No internal pull-up is present; omission results in undefined reset state during normal operation.
Can APX803-23SRG-7 operate reliably below 1.1 V supply voltage?
No - the recommended minimum VCC is 1.1 V. While the device guarantees RESET validity down to VCC = 1 V, operation below 1.1 V falls outside specified conditions. Below 1.1 V, internal comparator accuracy degrades and reset timeout timing is not characterized.
Is APX803-23SRG-7 pin-compatible with APX803D-29SRG-7?
Yes - both use identical SOT23-SR package and 1-GND / 2-VCC / 3-RESET pinout. However, APX803D-29SRG-7 has 2.93 V threshold and only 1 ms reset timeout, making it functionally incompatible for applications requiring 200 ms hold time or 2.25 V detection.
