Product details
Overview
APX803L05-12SA-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, providing precise 1.2V supply monitoring with ±1.5% threshold accuracy, 1µA typical supply current, and 55ms reset timeout. It features open-drain active-low RESET output and operates across –40°C to +85°C ambient range in battery-powered instrumentation and portable embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the APX803L05-12SA-7 datasheet, APX803L05-12SA-7 pinout, APX803L05-12SA-7 application, or APX803L05-12SA-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include detection voltage tolerance, reset delay timing stability over temperature, low-quiescent-current impact on system power budget, and SOT23 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The APX803L05-12SA-7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference with internal hysteresis (0.01×VTH) to prevent oscillation during VCC recovery. Its comparator architecture triggers reset within 20µs when VCC drops below 1.2V and holds active until VCC exceeds 1.2V by ≥1.5%.
Reset timeout is fixed at 55ms (typ.) and stable across –40°C to +85°C, with no external components required. The open-drain output supports pull-up to any voltage ≤5.5V and sinks up to 20mA, enabling direct interface with µP reset inputs or logic-level control circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Detection Voltage | 1.2V ±1.5% - ensures reliable reset assertion for 1.2V-core logic or low-voltage SoC power rails |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA (typ.), 2.5µA (max.) - minimizes battery drain in always-on monitoring applications |
| Reset Timeout | 55ms (typ.) - provides sufficient hold time for µP initialization without excessive system boot delay |
| Response Time | 20µs - guarantees fast fault detection during rapid VCC collapse |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - supports industrial and extended commercial environments |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - enables wired-OR reset bus configuration and flexible voltage-level translation |
| Package | SOT23-3 - surface-mount footprint compatible with automated assembly and space-constrained designs |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 package with 1.3mm × 2.9mm body, 0.95mm height, and standard JEDEC MO-178 footprint. RoHS-compliant, lead-free, halogen-free construction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Reference ground return path; must be connected to system power ground plane for accurate threshold sensing |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output; requires external pull-up resistor (typically 10kΩ) to host supply rail |
| 3 | VCC | Power input and monitored supply rail; senses voltage directly-no divider needed for 1.2V detection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 1.2V threshold | Internally trimmed; eliminates need for external resistive dividers or calibration in 1.2V system monitoring |
| ±1.5% accuracy over temp | Guarantees reset assertion within 18mV of nominal threshold across full operating range |
| 55ms factory-set delay | Matches common µP reset timing requirements without capacitor tolerance or aging drift concerns |
| 20µs fast response | Prevents spurious resets during transient dips while capturing critical brown-out events |
| No external components | Reduces BOM count, PCB area, and qualification effort for cost-sensitive portable designs |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Wearable ECG sensor with coin-cell battery and ultra-low-power MCU. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 1.2V LDO output powering the MCU core; asserts RESET if voltage sags below 1.182V. Use Value: Prevents firmware corruption during battery depletion while extending operational life via 1µA quiescent draw. |
Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted I/O module with isolated 1.2V digital logic rail. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 1.2V FPGA configuration supply; holds system in reset until stable post-power-up. Use Value: Ensures deterministic FPGA configuration by guaranteeing ≥55ms clean power before release. |
| Smart Meter Communication ICs | Automotive Body Control Units |
Use Scenario: NB-IoT modem IC powered from 1.2V buck converter in utility meter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects 1.2V rail collapse during RF transmission surges; triggers controlled shutdown sequence. Use Value: Avoids data loss or memory corruption by initiating graceful disconnect before voltage breach. |
Use Scenario: Low-power door module with 1.2V CAN transceiver supply. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Resets microcontroller if 1.2V rail falls due to load dump or cold-crank dip. Use Value: Maintains CAN communication integrity by enforcing minimum reset hold time per ISO 11898-2. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G12DBVR | 1.2V threshold, 200ms default delay, 1.6µA supply current, SOT23-6 package | Longer reset timeout; requires external capacitor for delay adjustment | Select when longer reset hold time is needed and board space allows 6-pin package |
| MAX6375XR22+T | 1.22V threshold, 200ms delay, 2.5µA supply current, SC70-5 package | Higher threshold tolerance (±2.5%), different pinout, no factory-programmed delay variants | Choose for legacy MAXIM-design ecosystems where SC70 footprint is already allocated |
Compared with TPS3808G12DBVR and MAX6375XR22+T, the APX803L05-12SA-7 delivers tighter threshold accuracy, lower quiescent current, and exact 55ms timing-making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-sensitive designs requiring minimal external components and predictable reset behavior.

FAQ
What is the absolute maximum supply voltage for APX803L05-12SA-7?
The absolute maximum VCC rating is 6.0V. Operation above this level risks permanent damage. Recommended operating range is 0.9V to 5.5V, with full specification compliance guaranteed from 1.02×VTH (1.224V) to 5.5V per datasheet Section 5.
Can APX803L05-12SA-7 monitor voltages other than 1.2V?
No. The "12" in the part number denotes factory-trimmed 1.2V detection threshold. Other thresholds (e.g., 1.3V–5.0V) require different orderable numbers like APX803L20-xxSA-7 (2.0V) or APX803L40-xxSA-7 (4.0V). No external resistor network can alter the internal reference.
Is the 55ms reset timeout adjustable?
No. The "05" suffix indicates fixed 55ms timeout, factory-programmed during wafer test. Alternative delays (0ms, 220ms, 450ms) are offered only as distinct part numbers (e.g., APX803L20-xxSA-7 = 220ms), not user-configurable.
Does APX803L05-12SA-7 meet automotive qualification standards?
This specific variant is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Diodes offers automotive-grade versions under separate part numbering (e.g., APX803L05-12SA-7Q) with PPAP documentation, IATF 16949 manufacturing, and extended temperature screening. Contact Diodes sales for qualified alternatives.
