Product details
Overview
APX803-31SAG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3-pin SOT23 microprocessor reset supervisor IC with 3.08 V ±0.05 V precision reset threshold, open-drain active-low RESET output, and 200 ms typical reset timeout period. It monitors 3.3 V digital power rails in embedded controllers and portable systems, asserting reset during power-up, brownout, or supply glitches down to VCC = 1 V.
For engineers reviewing the APX803-31SAG-7 datasheet, APX803-31SAG-7 pinout, APX803-31SAG-7 application, or APX803-31SAG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (±0.05 V), guaranteed reset validity at low VCC (1 V), open-drain interface compatibility with bidirectional µP reset pins, and SOT23 footprint constraints for space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The APX803-31SAG-7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with 30 ppm/°C tempco and 40 mV hysteresis to reject supply transients. Its internal oscillator drives a fixed 200 ms timeout timer after VCC rises above the 3.08 V threshold.
It features an N-channel open-drain output stage capable of sinking ≥1.2 mA at VCC = 3.08 V − 0.2 V with VOL ≤ 0.3 V, and operates across −40 °C to +85 °C ambient with supply current as low as 30 µA (typ.) at 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.08 V (typ.), 3.04–3.13 V (min–max); ensures reliable reset assertion for 3.3 V systems under worst-case temp/voltage drift |
| Reset Timeout Period | 200 ms (typ.), 140–280 ms (min–max); guarantees µP initialization completes before release |
| Supply Current | 30 µA (typ.) at 25 °C; enables battery-powered operation with negligible standby drain |
| Reset Output Type | Open-drain active-low; allows wired-OR with other reset sources and level-shifting across supply domains |
| Valid Reset Down To | VCC = 1 V; maintains defined logic state during deep brownout, preventing metastability |
| Tempco | 30 ppm/°C; limits threshold drift to <±15 mV over −40 °C to +85 °C operating range |
| Hysteresis | 40 mV; prevents chatter during slow-rising/falling VCC transitions near threshold |
Pinout & Package
APX803-31SAG-7 is housed in a RoHS-compliant, halogen-free SOT23-3 (SA) package with 2.4 mm × 1.3 mm footprint and 0.95 mm height. Pin 1 is GND, Pin 2 is VCC, Pin 3 is open-drain RESET.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for internal comparator and output driver; must be low-impedance to avoid noise-induced false resets |
| 2 (VCC) | Supply input | Monitored power rail input; also powers internal circuitry; valid from 1.1 V to 5.5 V |
| 3 (RESET) | Open-drain reset output | Active-low signal asserted when VCC < 3.08 V; requires external pull-up to system reset domain voltage |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision reset threshold | 3.08 V ±0.05 V at 25 °C with 30 ppm/°C drift - eliminates need for external trimming in 3.3 V systems |
| Fixed 200 ms reset timeout | Guaranteed minimum 140 ms ensures µP core, PLLs, and peripherals fully stabilize before release |
| Open-drain output stage | Sinks ≥1.2 mA at VCC = 2.88 V with VOL ≤ 0.3 V - supports direct interface to 1.8 V–5 V µP reset pins |
| Low 30 µA supply current | Enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors and portable instrumentation |
| Valid reset down to VCC = 1 V | Maintains deterministic logic state during deep undervoltage - prevents undefined µP behavior prior to shutdown |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Portable Medical Monitors |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Power sequencing and brownout protection in DIN-rail mounted programmable logic controllers with dual 3.3 V/5 V rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary reset supervisor for ARM Cortex-M7 microcontroller; asserts reset on 3.3 V rail dip below 3.08 V for ≥140 ms. Use Value: Prevents firmware corruption during factory floor voltage sags by guaranteeing full µP reset before code execution resumes. |
Use Scenario: Battery-backed vital signs monitor requiring fail-safe startup and low-power sleep mode recovery. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: System-level reset generator tied to main 3.3 V LDO; holds reset until regulated supply stabilizes post-battery insertion. Use Value: Eliminates external RC timing network, reducing BOM count and PCB area while maintaining ±0.05 V threshold accuracy over temperature. |
| Network Edge Routers | Smart Energy Meters |
Use Scenario: Supervision of 3.3 V PHY and switch controller supplies in fanless enterprise routers exposed to thermal cycling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage monitor for Ethernet PHY IC; triggers hardware reset if 3.3 V rail drops during thermal throttling events. Use Value: 30 ppm/°C tempco ensures reset threshold remains within 15 mV of nominal across −40 °C to +85 °C ambient, avoiding spurious resets. |
Use Scenario: Tamper-resistant metering platform with isolated MCU and metrology ADC powered from split 3.3 V/2.5 V rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-point reset source for both domains using open-drain output pulled up to 3.3 V rail. Use Value: Enables level-shifted reset assertion to 2.5 V metrology subsystem without additional level translators or isolation components. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APX803D-29SAG-7 | 2.93 V threshold, 1 ms reset timeout (vs. 3.08 V / 200 ms) | Targeted for 3.0 V systems; insufficient timeout for most µP initialization sequences | Select only when supervising lower-voltage rails where fast reset release is required |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3 V threshold, push-pull output, 200 ms timeout, higher ICC (12 µA min) | Eliminates external pull-up but lacks open-drain flexibility for multi-source reset buses | Prefer when board layout prohibits pull-up resistors or when driving capacitive loads >100 pF |
Compared with APX803D-29SAG-7, the APX803-31SAG-7 provides longer reset hold time essential for complex µP boot sequences; compared with TPS3808G33DBVR, it offers open-drain interoperability with legacy reset architectures but requires a pull-up resistor.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC required for the APX803-31SAG-7 to assert a valid RESET signal?
The APX803-31SAG-7 guarantees RESET remains a valid logic low down to VCC = 1.0 V. Below this voltage, the output enters high-impedance state and no longer sinks current. This ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout conditions common in battery-powered systems before complete power loss.
Can the APX803-31SAG-7 be used with a 1.8 V microcontroller reset input?
Yes - its open-drain RESET output can be pulled up to 1.8 V using an external resistor. The device sinks ≥1.2 mA at VCC = 2.88 V with VOL ≤ 0.3 V, ensuring compatible logic levels. No level-shifter is needed, but the pull-up must connect to the target µP's VDDIO rail, not the monitored 3.3 V supply.
How does the 40 mV hysteresis affect system reliability during slow-rising VCC?
The 40 mV hysteresis prevents oscillatory reset assertion when VCC ramps slowly through the 3.08 V threshold. It ensures RESET releases only after VCC exceeds 3.12 V and reasserts only after falling below 3.08 V, eliminating multiple reset pulses that could corrupt µP firmware during marginal power-up conditions.
Is the APX803-31SAG-7 pin-compatible with the APX803-31SRG-7?
Yes - both use identical SOT23-3 footprints and pinout (GND-VCC-RESET), differing only in package variant (SA vs. SR) and marking. SA has standard leadframe plating; SR uses matte tin. Mechanical dimensions and solder reflow profiles are identical, enabling drop-in replacement in existing layouts.
