Product details
Overview
APX803L40-27SR-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, providing precise 2.7V threshold detection with ±1.5% accuracy, 450ms reset timeout, 1µA typical supply current, and open-drain active-low RESET output in SOT23R package-used in battery-powered IoT sensors and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the APX803L40-27SR-7 datasheet, APX803L40-27SR-7 pinout, APX803L40-27SR-7 application, or APX803L40-27SR-7 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated SOT23R pin mapping, real-world supervisory use cases, and confirmed alternative parts with documented timing and threshold differences.
Technical Context
The APX803L40-27SR-7 implements a fixed-threshold voltage monitor with hysteresis (0.01×VTH) and internal bandgap reference, enabling reliable power-on reset assertion when VCC drops below 2.7V. Its reset signal remains asserted until VCC exceeds 2.7V + hysteresis, ensuring clean processor initialization.
It features factory-programmed 450ms reset timeout (tDELAY), operates from 0.9V to 5.5V supply, and delivers sub-20µs response time (tS) to VCC droop-critical for low-voltage microcontrollers in energy-constrained systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.7V ±1.5% - ensures accurate brown-out detection for 3.3V/2.8V logic rails |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA typical - enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries |
| Reset Timeout | 450ms (typ.) - meets boot-time requirements of ARM Cortex-M0+ MCUs |
| Response Time | 20µs max - guarantees fast reset assertion during rapid VCC collapse |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - supports wired-OR reset bus and flexible pull-up selection |
| Operating Voltage | 0.9V to 5.5V - compatible with Li-ion, alkaline, and regulated 1.8V–5V supplies |
| Temp Range | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded applications |
Pinout & Package
APX803L40-27SR-7 is housed in a 3-pin SOT23R (SC-59) surface-mount package with gull-wing leads, 1.3mm pitch, and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for internal comparator and reset driver |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain output; sinks current when VCC < 2.7V; requires external pull-up |
| 3 | VCC | Power input; supplies internal circuitry and sets detection reference |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low ICC | 1.0µA typ. - eliminates measurable impact on battery runtime in always-on monitoring |
| Fixed 2.7V Threshold | ±1.5% accuracy over -40°C to +85°C - removes need for external resistor divider calibration |
| Factory-Set Delay | 450ms timeout - eliminates external capacitor and associated layout sensitivity |
| Fast Response | ≤20µs VCC drop-to-reset - prevents MCU lockup during transient supply dips |
| No External Components | Self-contained detection and timing - reduces BOM count and PCB area by 2–3 passives |
Applications
| Smart Wearable Sensor Node | Industrial PLC I/O Module |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Continuous heart-rate monitoring using BLE SoC powered by CR2032 battery. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage supervisor asserting RESET until stable 3.0V rail is established post-battery insertion. Use Value: Prevents firmware crash during cold-start by guaranteeing 450ms minimum reset hold time before MCU execution. | Use Scenario: Digital input card receiving 24V DC field signals via optocoupler-supplied 3.3V LDO. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3V logic supply; triggers system-wide reset if rail sags below 2.7V due to EMI or load surge. Use Value: Maintains deterministic recovery after brownout without requiring FPGA-based watchdog logic. |
| Portable Point-of-Care Ultrasound Probe | Automotive Cabin Controller (Non-AEC-Q) |
Use Scenario: Battery-operated handheld ultrasound unit with FPGA-based beamformer and analog front-end. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 1.8V core supply for FPGA configuration memory and 2.5V analog bias rail. Use Value: Enables dual-rail monitoring via single device (with external resistor network), reducing component count vs. discrete solutions. | Use Scenario: In-cabin infotainment control panel with touch interface and CAN gateway MCU. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides primary reset signal for main application MCU during vehicle ignition sequence. Use Value: Delivers guaranteed 450ms reset pulse even under slow-rising 5V supply from body-control module. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APX803L40-27SA-7 | SOT23 (not SOT23R); identical electrical specs and marking code A527 | Same footprint but different lead form (SOT23 vs SOT23R); may require requalification for automated optical inspection | Select SA variant only if legacy SOT23 pick-and-place tooling is in place |
| TLV803E27DBVR | 2.7V threshold, 350ms delay (not 450ms); 0.5µA ICC; same SOT23 package | Lacks extended timeout; unsuitable where >400ms reset hold is required per MCU datasheet | Choose only if system timing budget permits shorter reset duration and ultra-low ICC is prioritized |
Compared with APX803L40-27SA-7, the SR variant offers improved manufacturability in high-speed placement; versus TLV803E27DBVR, it provides longer, factory-guaranteed reset timing critical for safety-critical boot sequences.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and tolerance for APX803L40-27SR-7?
The APX803L40-27SR-7 has a nominal reset threshold of 2.7V with ±1.5% accuracy over -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of DS38171 Rev. 3-2. This corresponds to a guaranteed range of 2.6595V to 2.7405V at +25°C, and includes temperature coefficient of 50 ppm/°C.
Does APX803L40-27SR-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 a valid logic rail (e.g., 3.3V or 5V) is mandatory. The datasheet recommends ≤10kΩ for standard CMOS loads; maximum sink current is 20mA, and VOL is ≤0.4V at 3.5mA sink.
Can APX803L40-27SR-7 operate with a 1.2V supply?
No. The absolute minimum operating supply voltage is 0.9V, but the recommended operating range is 0.9V to 5.5V. At 1.2V, the internal bandgap reference and comparator lack sufficient headroom to guarantee correct 2.7V threshold comparison-operation below 1.8V is not characterized and may result in undefined reset behavior.
Is APX803L40-27SR-7 qualified for automotive applications?
No. APX803L40-27SR-7 is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Diodes Incorporated explicitly states that automotive-grade variants require separate change control, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing-this part is intended for industrial and consumer applications only, as confirmed in the "For automotive applications…" footnote of the datasheet.
