Product details
Overview
APX803L05-46SA-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, providing precise 4.6V threshold detection with ±1.5% 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 IoT sensors and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the APX803L05-46SA-7 datasheet, APX803L05-46SA-7 pinout, APX803L05-46SA-7 application, or APX803L05-46SA-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include fixed 4.6V detection level, SOT23-3 package compatibility, 55ms delay timing, and low-quiescent-current supervision for energy-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The APX803L05-46SA-7 integrates a precision bandgap reference and comparator with hysteresis (0.01×VTH) to ensure stable reset assertion during VCC droop. Its internal threshold is factory-trimmed to 4.6V with ±1.5% initial accuracy and 50ppm/°C temperature coefficient.
Reset assertion occurs within 20µs of VCC falling below 4.6V; recovery requires VCC to exceed 4.6V + hysteresis before RESET deasserts. The open-drain output supports pull-up to any voltage ≤5.5V and sinks up to 20mA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Detection Threshold | 4.6V ±1.5% - fixed internal value enabling precise power-rail monitoring without external resistors |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA typical - minimizes load on coin-cell or Li-ion backup supplies in always-on systems |
| Reset Timeout | 55ms - ensures reliable processor initialization after brownout recovery in microcontroller-based edge nodes |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - allows wired-OR reset bus sharing and flexible pull-up voltage selection (≤5.5V) |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - supports industrial-grade deployment in automotive cabin modules and industrial gateways |
| Hysteresis | 0.01×VTH (≈46mV) - prevents oscillatory reset toggling near threshold during slow VCC ramp-up |
| Response Time | 20µs - guarantees sub-microsecond detection of fast transients, critical for real-time safety-critical firmware |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 package (JEDEC TO-236AB), 1.3mm × 2.9mm footprint, 1.45mm height, lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground Reference | Return path for internal circuitry; must be connected directly to system ground plane for noise immunity |
| 2 (RESET) | Open-Drain Reset Output | Active-low signal asserted when VCC < 4.6V; requires external pull-up resistor to host logic rail |
| 3 (VCC) | Supply Input | Monitored power rail input; operates from 0.9V to 5.5V; powers internal detector circuitry |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external components required | Eliminates BOM cost and PCB area for resistor dividers or timing capacitors in reset generation |
| Low temperature drift | 50ppm/°C threshold coefficient ensures <±30mV total drift over –40°C to +85°C operating range |
| Fast response time | 20µs propagation delay enables detection of short-duration dips (<100µs) that could crash firmware |
| Multiple delay options | 55ms timeout matches typical µP boot sequence timing, avoiding premature release before code execution begins |
| Robust ESD protection | ±4000V HBM rating protects against handling damage during assembly and field service operations |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage detector applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV803E46DBVR | 4.6V threshold, 350ms default delay, 0.5µA supply current, SOT23-3 | Longer timeout unsuitable for fast-boot MCUs; lower current benefits ultra-low-power sleep modes | Select if system requires extended reset hold time and ultra-low standby consumption is prioritized over boot speed |
| MAX809SEUR+T | 4.63V threshold, 240ms delay, 12µA supply current, SOT23-3 | Higher quiescent current limits use in multi-year battery applications; tighter 2.5% threshold tolerance | Choose when higher absolute threshold accuracy is needed and 12µA supply current is acceptable in primary power domain |
Compared with TLV803E46DBVR and MAX809SEUR+T, the APX803L05-46SA-7 delivers optimal balance of 55ms timing alignment with modern µP boot sequences, 1µA supply current for decade-long battery life, and ±1.5% threshold accuracy-making it ideal for space- and energy-constrained edge devices.

FAQ
What is the exact detection threshold voltage of APX803L05-46SA-7?
The APX803L05-46SA-7 has a factory-trimmed detection threshold of 4.6V with ±1.5% initial accuracy at +25°C. This value is fixed internally and does not require external resistor configuration. Temperature drift is specified at 50ppm/°C, resulting in ±30mV maximum deviation over the full –40°C to +85°C operating range.
Can APX803L05-46SA-7 be used with a 3.3V microcontroller I/O rail?
Yes-the open-drain RESET output is compatible with 3.3V logic when pulled up to that rail. The output can sink up to 20mA and withstand up to 6.0V on the RESET pin, allowing direct interfacing with 1.8V, 3.3V, or 5V host systems without level-shifting circuitry.
Does APX803L05-46SA-7 require an external capacitor on the RESET line?
No external capacitor is required. The 55ms reset timeout is implemented entirely within the IC using internal timing circuitry. Adding external capacitance would distort the specified delay and is not recommended per the datasheet design guidelines.
Is APX803L05-46SA-7 qualified for automotive applications?
The APX803L05-46SA-7 is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Diodes Incorporated offers automotive-grade variants under separate part numbering (e.g., APX803L05-46SAQ-7) with PPAP documentation, IATF 16949 manufacturing, and extended temperature screening. This variant is intended for industrial and consumer applications only.
