Product details
Overview
APX803L20-50W5-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, providing precise 2.0V threshold detection with ±1.5% accuracy, 220ms reset timeout, open-drain active-low output, and 1µA typical supply current. It monitors VCC in battery-powered systems such as portable medical devices, IoT edge sensors, and low-power microcontroller-based instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the APX803L20-50W5-7 datasheet, APX803L20-50W5-7 pinout, APX803L20-50W5-7 application, or APX803L20-50W5-7 equivalent, this device delivers verified reset supervision for systems requiring stable brown-out detection, fast 20µs response, and minimal power overhead in space-constrained SOT25 packages.
Technical Context
The APX803L20-50W5-7 integrates a precision bandgap reference and comparator to monitor VCC against a fixed 2.0V threshold, with built-in hysteresis (0.01 × VTH) preventing oscillation during slow-rising/falling supply transitions. Its internal delay timer ensures reset remains asserted for exactly 220ms after VCC recovers above threshold.
Operating from 0.9V to 5.5V supply, it features an open-drain RESET output capable of sinking 20mA at 0.4V max VOL under 3.5mA load, enabling direct interface with µP reset inputs without external pull-up resistors in most designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.0V ±1.5% - precisely holds system reset until VCC exceeds 2.03V (min), ensuring reliable release margin |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA typical - imposes negligible load on coin-cell or energy-harvesting supplies |
| Reset Timeout | 220ms (typ.) - guarantees µP initialization completes before release, per JEDEC JESD78 requirements |
| Response Time | 20µs - detects VCC drop faster than most µP internal clocks, preventing illegal state entry |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - supports wired-OR reset buses and flexible pull-up voltage selection (up to 5.5V) |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C - validated for industrial-grade embedded control and portable equipment environments |
| Package | SOT25 (5-pin) - provides GND, VCC, RESET, and two NC pins for mechanical stability and layout flexibility |
Pinout & Package
SOT25 package: 5-pin plastic surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad; pin 1 = VCC, pin 2 = RESET, pin 3 = GND, pins 4–5 = No Connection (NC). Designed for automated placement and reflow compatibility with IPC-7351B footprint standards.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Positive supply input - must be decoupled with ≥100nF ceramic capacitor near pin for noise immunity |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low output - requires external pull-up resistor to host logic rail (e.g., 10kΩ to 3.3V) |
| 3 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - connects directly to PCB ground plane for stable threshold reference |
| 4, 5 | NC | No connection - left unconnected; may be used for mechanical anchoring or thermal relief in high-reliability layouts |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 2.0V threshold | Eliminates external resistor divider, reducing BOM count and layout area while guaranteeing ±1.5% accuracy over temperature |
| 220ms factory-set delay | Ensures deterministic reset hold time without timing capacitor tolerance drift or leakage effects |
| 1µA supply current | Extends battery life in always-on monitoring applications (e.g., >10-year operation on CR2032) |
| Open-drain output | Enables multi-source reset arbitration and level-shifting across mixed-voltage domains (e.g., 1.8V µP + 3.3V peripherals) |
| SOT25 package | Offers improved thermal resistance (θJA = 200°C/W) vs. SOT23 and dedicated NC pins for enhanced board-level reliability |
Applications
| Portable ECG Monitor | Smart Sensor Node |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APX803L20-20SA | SOT23-3 package (3-pin), same 2.0V threshold and 220ms delay, but no NC pins | Limited routing flexibility and higher θJA (200°C/W vs. SOT25's 200°C/W with better pad coupling) | Select when board space is critical and thermal load is low; verify PCB land pattern compatibility |
| TLV803S20DBZR | Texas Instruments part; 2.0V threshold, 200ms delay, 0.9µA supply current, SOT23-3 | Requires external pull-up; lacks NC pins; slightly tighter temp range (-40°C to +125°C) | Choose for TI-design ecosystems or where 125°C operation is required; confirm reset timing alignment with µP spec |
Compared with APX803L20-20SA and TLV803S20DBZR, the APX803L20-50W5-7 offers superior mechanical robustness via SOT25's dual NC pins and identical thermal performance with greater layout margin, making it optimal for high-volume industrial and medical production.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and its tolerance for APX803L20-50W5-7?
The APX803L20-50W5-7 has a nominal reset threshold of 2.0V with a guaranteed accuracy of ±1.5% over the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), meaning the actual trip point falls between 1.97V and 2.03V at +25°C and remains within ±1.5% across temperature per datasheet DS38171 Rev. 3-2.
Does APX803L20-50W5-7 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 to the host logic supply (e.g., 3.3V or 5V) is mandatory. Typical values range from 4.7kΩ to 10kΩ; the device itself does not include internal pull-up circuitry.
Can APX803L20-50W5-7 operate with supply voltages below 2.0V?
Yes - it functions down to 0.9V supply (VCC), allowing valid reset assertion even as the monitored rail collapses. However, RESET remains active until VCC rises above 2.0V × 1.02 = 2.04V, ensuring clean release hysteresis per specification.
How is the 220ms reset timeout implemented - is it adjustable or fixed?
The 220ms timeout is factory-trimmed and fixed internally; no external components or configuration pins modify it. This eliminates timing variation due to capacitor tolerance, aging, or temperature drift, delivering consistent reset hold time across all units and conditions.
