Product details

Overview

APX803L05-38SA-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, monitoring VCC supply levels in embedded digital systems. It features a fixed 3.8V detection threshold (±1.5% accuracy), 1µA typical supply current, open-drain active-low RESET output, and 55ms reset timeout delay. Used in battery-powered instrumentation and portable electronics requiring reliable power-on reset.

For engineers reviewing the APX803L05-38SA-7 datasheet, APX803L05-38SA-7 pinout, APX803L05-38SA-7 application, or APX803L05-38SA-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include threshold voltage tolerance, reset delay timing stability over temperature, low-quiescent-current operation in sleep modes, and SOT23 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.

Technical Context

The APX803L05-38SA-7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference comparator with built-in hysteresis (0.01×VTH) to prevent oscillation during supply ramp-up/down. Its internal threshold is factory-trimmed to 3.8V and invariant across -40°C to +85°C operating ambient.

Reset assertion occurs within 20µs when VCC drops below 3.8V, and release requires VCC to exceed 3.815V (VTH_H = VTH_L × 1.004). The open-drain output supports wired-OR configuration and external pull-up to any logic rail up to 5.5V.

Applications

Portable Medical SensorsIndustrial PLC I/O Modules

Use Scenario: Wearable ECG sensor continuously monitors battery voltage while in ultra-low-power sleep mode between measurements.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage detector asserts RESET to halt MCU execution until VBAT recovers above 3.8V after cold start or deep discharge.

Use Value: 1µA quiescent current extends coin-cell lifetime beyond 3 years; 55ms delay prevents spurious wakeups during battery recovery transients.

Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted I/O module powers up in harsh factory environments where input 24VDC supply may sag during motor startup.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.3V LDO output feeding FPGA configuration logic; holds system in reset until rail stabilizes.

Use Value: ±1.5% threshold accuracy ensures deterministic reset behavior across -40°C to +85°C ambient; open-drain output interfaces directly with FPGA's active-low PROG_B pin.

Smart Home Hub Power ManagementAutomotive Body Control Module (Non-AEC)

Use Scenario: Wi-Fi-enabled home automation hub uses dual-supply architecture (5V main, 3.3V logic); detects 3.3V rail integrity during AC adapter hot-plug events.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3V domain and triggers hardware reset if voltage collapses due to load switching or regulator fault.

Use Value: 20µs response time captures fast transients missed by slower supervisors; SOT23-3 footprint saves space on compact 4-layer PCB.

Use Scenario: Aftermarket lighting controller powered from vehicle battery (9–16V) with internal 5V buck converter; requires robust reset under cranking conditions.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects 5V rail collapse during engine start (battery dip to ~6.5V) and holds microcontroller in reset until recovery.

Use Value: 3.8V threshold aligns with minimum 5V regulator dropout; hysteresis (≈38mV) prevents chatter during slow VCC recovery.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
TLV803E38DBVR3.8V threshold, 2.7µA max ICC, 200ms default delay (non-adjustable)Larger 5-pin SOT23 package; no 55ms option - only 200ms or 1.1s variantsSelect if longer reset hold time is acceptable and board layout accommodates larger footprint
MAX809SEUR+T3.08V threshold (not 3.8V), 12µA max ICC, 240ms delayRequires external RC for delay tuning; higher supply current impacts battery runtimeChoose only if system tolerates lower trip point and can accommodate higher quiescent draw

Compared with TLV803E38DBVR and MAX809SEUR+T, the APX803L05-38SA-7 delivers tighter threshold accuracy (±1.5% vs ±2.5%), lower ICC (1µA vs ≥2.7µA), and exact 55ms delay without external components-making it optimal for space- and energy-constrained 3.3V/5V embedded systems.

FAQ

What is the exact reset threshold voltage and its tolerance for APX803L05-38SA-7?

The APX803L05-38SA-7 has a factory-set detection threshold of 3.8V with guaranteed accuracy of ±1.5% over -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This means the actual trip point falls between 3.743V and 3.857V under specified operating conditions, as confirmed in Electrical Characteristics Table of DS38171 Rev. 3-2.

Does APX803L05-38SA-7 require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?

Yes - the RESET pin is open-drain and active-low, so an external pull-up resistor (typically 4.7kΩ to 10kΩ) to the monitored supply rail or host logic voltage is mandatory for proper operation. Without it, the output cannot drive a valid HIGH state during reset release.

Can APX803L05-38SA-7 operate from a 1.8V supply rail?

No - the minimum operating supply voltage is 0.9V, but the 3.8V threshold requires VCC ≥ 3.8V to function as intended. For 1.8V systems, use a variant like APX803L18-XXSA-7 (1.8V threshold); the "05" suffix denotes 55ms delay, not supply voltage.

Is APX803L05-38SA-7 qualified for automotive AEC-Q100 applications?

No - this specific part is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Diodes states that automotive-grade versions require explicit change control, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing; APX803L05-38SA-7 is rated for industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) only and carries no AEC qualification.
