Product details
Overview
APX803L20-44W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, providing precise 2.2V threshold detection (±1.5% accuracy), 220ms reset timeout, open-drain active-low RESET output, and ultra-low 1µA typical supply current. It monitors VCC in battery-powered embedded systems such as portable medical devices, IoT edge sensors, and low-power industrial controllers.
For engineers reviewing the APX803L20-44W5-7 datasheet, APX803L20-44W5-7 pinout, APX803L20-44W5-7 application, or APX803L20-44W5-7 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin mapping, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options for power-supply monitoring in space-constrained, energy-sensitive designs.
Technical Context
The APX803L20-44W5-7 implements a fixed-threshold voltage detection architecture with internal hysteresis (0.01×VTH) to prevent oscillation during VCC recovery. Its reset logic asserts an active-low signal when VCC drops below 2.2V and holds it until VCC exceeds the release threshold (VTH + hysteresis), ensuring reliable µP initialization.
It operates across –40°C to +85°C ambient, supports 0.9V–5.5V supply range, and features temperature-stable threshold drift (50 ppm/°C), enabling robust performance in thermally variable environments without external calibration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.2V ±1.5% - precisely triggers reset at nominal system supply rail for 2.2V LDO or battery monitoring |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA typical - enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries without measurable drain |
| Reset Timeout | 220ms (typ.) - ensures sufficient hold time for slow-ramping µP clocks and memory initialization |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - allows wired-OR configuration with other reset sources and flexible pull-up voltage selection |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - certified for industrial-grade deployment in uncontrolled ambient environments |
| VCC Range | 0.9V to 5.5V - supports direct connection to 1.2V–3.3V logic rails and legacy 5V systems |
| Threshold Hysteresis | 0.01×VTH (22mV) - prevents chatter during marginal VCC recovery near threshold |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 (5-pin) package with NC pins; compact footprint ideal for high-density PCB layouts where 3-pin variants are insufficient for routing isolation or thermal management.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Power input pin - must be decoupled with ≥100nF ceramic capacitor adjacent to pin for noise immunity |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output - requires external pull-up resistor to host logic rail (e.g., 10kΩ to 3.3V) |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference - must connect directly to low-impedance system ground plane |
| 4, 5 | NC | No connection - left floating per design; no internal circuitry or bonding wire attached |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 2.2V threshold | Eliminates external resistor divider, reducing BOM count and layout area while guaranteeing ±1.5% accuracy over temperature |
| 220ms factory-set delay | Matches typical µP power-on reset timing requirements without external RC network or firmware delay loops |
| 1µA supply current | Enables continuous supervision in always-on battery-backed systems (e.g., smart meter backup mode) with negligible impact on runtime |
| Open-drain output | Supports level-shifting across mixed-voltage domains and enables shared reset bus with multiple supervisors |
| SOT25 package | Provides dedicated GND and VCC pins plus NC pads for improved thermal dissipation and reduced trace coupling vs. 3-pin SOT23 |
Applications
| Portable ECG Monitors | Smart Meter Backup Circuits |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Continuous battery-powered operation with periodic BLE transmission and analog front-end sampling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage supervisor asserting RESET during brown-out events to prevent corrupted ADC reads or flash writes. Use Value: 220ms timeout ensures full analog settling and RF startup before µP resumes execution; 1µA quiescent current extends 10-year battery life. | Use Scenario: Mains-powered utility meter with supercapacitor backup maintaining RTC and nonvolatile registers during grid outage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects supercap voltage decay below 2.2V and initiates controlled shutdown sequence via µP interrupt. Use Value: ±1.5% threshold accuracy guarantees consistent switchover point across temperature, eliminating false resets in outdoor enclosures. |
| Industrial PLC I/O Modules | Wireless Sensor Node Controllers |
Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted module powered by 24V DC-DC converter with local 3.3V rail for FPGA and communication ICs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3V rail integrity and forces FPGA reconfiguration if supply dips due to transient load spikes. Use Value: Open-drain output interfaces directly to FPGA's PROG_B pin; NC pins in SOT25 allow clean separation of power and ground return paths. | Use Scenario: Sub-GHz LoRa node powered by primary lithium thionyl chloride cell, waking every 15 minutes for sensor read and transmit. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Ensures µC only boots when cell voltage remains above safe operating minimum before initiating measurement cycle. Use Value: 50 ppm/°C tempco maintains stable trip point across –25°C to +60°C field deployments; no external components reduce failure modes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APX803L20-44SA-7 | Same 2.2V threshold and 220ms delay, but in 3-pin SOT23 package with no NC pins | Lacks dedicated NC pins; less suitable for high-noise industrial layouts requiring ground isolation | Select when board space is critical and routing complexity permits shared ground return |
| TLV803E22DBZR | 2.2V threshold, 200ms delay, 0.5µA supply current, but only ±2.5% accuracy and no hysteresis spec | Lower accuracy increases risk of spurious resets in noisy environments; lacks guaranteed hysteresis margin | Choose only for cost-sensitive consumer applications where ±2.5% tolerance is acceptable |
Compared with APX803L20-44SA-7, the W5 variant offers superior layout flexibility and noise immunity via NC pins; versus TLV803E22DBZR, it delivers tighter threshold accuracy and defined hysteresis-critical for industrial reliability.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for APX803L20-44W5-7?
The APX803L20-44W5-7 has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 2.2V with ±1.5% accuracy over temperature (–40°C to +85°C). This value is fixed internally and cannot be adjusted externally. The hysteresis is 0.01×VTH (22mV), ensuring stable release at 2.222V after recovery.
Can APX803L20-44W5-7 drive a 10kΩ pull-up resistor to 5V?
Yes. The open-drain RESET output is rated for 20mA sink current and guarantees VOL ≤ 0.4V at ISINK = 3.5mA. With a 10kΩ pull-up to 5V, the resulting sink current is 0.5mA - well within specification and ensuring clean logic-low assertion under all operating conditions.
Is the SOT25 package RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes. APX803L20-44W5-7 is fully RoHS 3 compliant (2015/863/EU), lead-free, halogen-free, and antimony-free per Diodes Incorporated's "Green" definition (<900ppm Br, <900ppm Cl, <1000ppm Sb). The SOT25 package uses matte-tin lead finish and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1.
Does APX803L20-44W5-7 require an external bypass capacitor?
Yes. A minimum 100nF ceramic capacitor must be placed between VCC and GND, as close as possible to the device pins. This stabilizes the internal reference and prevents false triggering from supply transients - omission violates recommended operating conditions and degrades reset timing accuracy.
