Product details
Overview
APX803L20-29SR-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, providing precise 2.9V threshold detection with ±1.5% accuracy, 1µA typical supply current, 220ms reset timeout, and open-drain active-low RESET output in SOT23R package. It monitors VCC in battery-powered embedded systems to assert reset during brownout conditions.
For engineers reviewing the APX803L20-29SR-7 datasheet, APX803L20-29SR-7 pinout, APX803L20-29SR-7 application, or APX803L20-29SR-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include threshold voltage tolerance, reset delay stability over temperature, low-quiescent-current operation in sleep mode, and compatibility with 1.02×VTH release hysteresis in µC power sequencing.
Technical Context
The APX803L20-29SR-7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference with internal hysteresis (0.01×VTH) to prevent oscillation near threshold. Its comparator drives an open-drain NMOS output stage capable of sinking ≥3.5mA at 0.4V drop.
Reset assertion occurs within 20µs of VCC falling below 2.9V, and remains active until VCC exceeds 2.929V (1.02×VTH), with guaranteed 220ms minimum timeout across –40°C to +85°C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Threshold Voltage | 2.9V ±1.5% - ensures reliable µP reset initiation at defined supply rail margin |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA typical - enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring applications |
| Reset Timeout | 220ms (min) - provides sufficient hold time for full µC initialization and clock stabilization |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - allows wired-OR reset bus configuration and flexible pull-up voltage selection |
| Response Time | 20µs max - guarantees rapid fault capture before system state corruption occurs |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - supports industrial-grade deployment without derating |
| Hysteresis | 0.01×VTH - prevents chatter during slow-rising/falling supply transitions |
Pinout & Package
SOT23R (3-pin, 1.3mm × 2.9mm, 0.95mm height) with gull-wing leads; RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, lead-free construction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Reference ground return path for internal comparator and output stage |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain output; pulled low when VCC < 2.9V, high-impedance otherwise |
| 3 | VCC | Power input; supplies internal reference, comparator, and output driver |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 2.9V threshold | Eliminates external resistor network, reducing BOM count and layout area |
| 220ms factory-programmed delay | Guarantees consistent reset duration without timing capacitor tolerance drift |
| ±1.5% threshold accuracy | Enables tight VCC margining for low-voltage µPs (e.g., 3.0V nominal rails) |
| 1µA supply current | Minimizes standby power draw in IoT sensor nodes with 10-year battery targets |
| No external components | Reduces design validation effort and eliminates capacitor aging/leakage concerns |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G29DBVR | 2.9V threshold, 250ms fixed delay, 1.6µA supply current, SOT23-6 package | Requires external pull-up; larger footprint; higher quiescent current | Select if longer timeout or dual-supply monitoring required |
| MAX809SEUR+T | 2.93V threshold, 140ms min delay, 12µA supply current, SOT23-3 package | Higher ICC reduces battery life; looser ±2.5% threshold tolerance | Select only for cost-sensitive legacy designs where 12µA is acceptable |
Compared with TPS3808G29DBVR and MAX809SEUR+T, the APX803L20-29SR-7 delivers superior battery efficiency (1µA vs. ≥12µA), tighter threshold accuracy (±1.5% vs. ±2.5%), and identical SOT23-3 footprint-making it optimal for space-constrained, long-life portable electronics.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and its tolerance for APX803L20-29SR-7?
The APX803L20-29SR-7 has a nominal reset threshold of 2.90V with a guaranteed tolerance of ±1.5% over temperature (–40°C to +85°C), meaning the actual trip point falls between 2.8565V and 2.9435V under all operating conditions.
Does APX803L20-29SR-7 require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
Yes - the RESET pin is open-drain and requires an external pull-up resistor to a valid logic-high voltage (e.g., VCC or another supply rail). Typical values range from 10kΩ to 100kΩ depending on bus capacitance and rise-time requirements.
Can APX803L20-29SR-7 operate with supply voltages below 2.9V?
Yes - the device operates down to 0.9V supply (per Recommended Operating Conditions), but reset assertion only occurs when VCC drops below 2.9V. Below ~1.0V, internal circuitry may cease functioning, though the output remains latched low until power is fully removed.
How does the 220ms reset timeout behave across temperature and supply voltage variations?
The 220ms timeout is factory-trimmed and specified as minimum value across –40°C to +85°C and 0.9V–5.5V VCC range. Measured data shows variation from 220ms to 297ms (max) at +85°C, ensuring robust hold time under worst-case conditions.
