Product details
Overview
APX803L-14W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, providing precise 1.4V threshold detection with ±1.5% accuracy, 1µA typical supply current, and 220ms reset timeout in SOT25 package-used to monitor power integrity in battery-powered IoT sensors and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the APX803L-14W5-7 datasheet, APX803L-14W5-7 pinout, APX803L-14W5-7 application, or APX803L-14W5-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include threshold voltage tolerance, open-drain active-low reset timing, low-quiescent-current operation under 1.5V supply, and compatibility with space-constrained SOT25 PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The APX803L-14W5-7 implements a fixed-threshold, hysteresis-enabled voltage monitoring circuit with internal 1.4V reference derived from bandgap architecture. Its reset assertion logic triggers when VCC drops below 1.4V and sustains the active-low open-drain output until VCC exceeds 1.4V + 0.014V (1% hysteresis), ensuring noise immunity during brown-out recovery.
It integrates factory-programmed 220ms reset timeout (APX803L20 variant), eliminating external RC timing components. The device operates across -40°C to +85°C ambient, maintains 50 ppm/°C threshold temperature coefficient, and supports sink currents up to 20mA on the RESET pin.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 1.4V ±1.5% - precisely monitors 1.4V rail for microcontroller core voltage stability |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA typical - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered wearables |
| Reset Timeout | 220ms - ensures reliable processor initialization after power-up or brown-out |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - allows wired-OR reset bus sharing and flexible pull-up voltage selection |
| Operating Voltage | 0.9V to 5.5V - supports direct connection to 1.2V, 1.8V, 3.3V, and 5V system rails |
| Hysteresis | 0.01 × VTH (14mV) - prevents oscillatory reset toggling near threshold during slow-rising VCC |
| Response Time | 20µs - guarantees fast fault detection before digital logic corruption occurs |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (5-pin) package with 1.6mm × 2.9mm footprint and 0.95mm height; pin 1 = VCC, pin 2 = RESET (open-drain), pin 3 = GND, pins 4–5 = NC (no connection).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Power input pin; must be decoupled with ≥100nF capacitor to suppress supply noise |
| 2 | RESET | Active-low open-drain output; requires external pull-up resistor to host logic rail |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference; must connect to low-impedance system ground plane |
| 4, 5 | NC | No internal connection; left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 1.0µA typ. - reduces standby power loss in always-on edge nodes |
| Factory-set threshold | 1.4V with 0.1V step granularity - eliminates external resistor network calibration |
| Built-in reset delay | 220ms fixed timeout - replaces discrete RC timing circuit, saving BOM cost and board area |
| High-accuracy hysteresis | 14mV (1% of 1.4V) - prevents false resets during noisy or slowly recovering power rails |
| Lead-free & green compliance | RoHS 3 / halogen-free / antimony-free - meets global environmental compliance for medical and consumer end equipment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G14DBVR | 1.4V threshold, 350ms default delay, 1.6µA supply current, SOT23-6 package | Requires external capacitor for delay adjustment; larger footprint than SOT25 | Select when programmable delay or higher sink current (50mA) is required |
| MAX809SEUR+T | 1.4V threshold, 240ms delay, 10µA supply current, SOT23-3 package | No NC pins; lacks hysteresis specification (±2.5% threshold accuracy) | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-critical applications where 10× higher ICC is acceptable |
Compared with TPS3808G14DBVR and MAX809SEUR+T, the APX803L-14W5-7 delivers superior power efficiency (1µA vs. 1.6–10µA), tighter threshold accuracy (±1.5% vs. ±2–3%), and smaller SOT25 footprint with dedicated NC pins for improved layout routing-making it optimal for compact, long-life battery systems.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and tolerance for APX803L-14W5-7?
The APX803L-14W5-7 has a nominal reset threshold of 1.4V with ±1.5% accuracy over temperature (–40°C to +85°C), verified per DS38171 Rev. 3–2 Table 3. This corresponds to a guaranteed range of 1.379V to 1.421V at +25°C, tightening to ±1.8% over full operating range.
Can APX803L-14W5-7 operate with a 1.2V supply rail?
Yes - the device supports VCC down to 0.9V per Recommended Operating Conditions, enabling use with 1.2V LDO outputs. However, RESET output low voltage (VOL) rises to ≤0.4V only when sinking ≤3.5mA at VCC = VTH – 0.2V; full 20mA sink capability requires VCC ≥1.5V.
Is the 220ms reset timeout adjustable or fixed?
The 220ms timeout is factory-programmed and fixed - no external components or configuration pins modify it. This is confirmed by ordering code "20" in APX803L20-14W5-7 and electrical characteristic table tDELAY values (143/220/297ms min/typ/max) for APX803L20 variants.
Are pins 4 and 5 on the SOT25 package required to be grounded?
No - pins 4 and 5 are explicitly designated NC (no connection) in the Pin Descriptions table and Functional Block Diagram. Diodes recommends leaving them unconnected; grounding is permissible but provides no functional benefit and may increase parasitic capacitance.
