Product details
Overview
APX803L40-34SA-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, monitoring VCC supply rails in battery-powered and embedded digital systems. It features a fixed 3.4V detection threshold (±1.5% accuracy), 450ms reset timeout, 1µA typical supply current, open-drain active-low RESET output, and operates from 0.9V to 5.5V supply. It is used in portable equipment requiring reliable power-on reset and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the APX803L40-34SA-7 datasheet, APX803L40-34SA-7 pinout, APX803L40-34SA-7 application, or APX803L40-34SA-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include threshold voltage tolerance, reset delay timing stability over temperature, low quiescent current impact on battery life, and compatibility with 3-pin SOT23 footprint layouts in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The APX803L40-34SA-7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference comparator with built-in hysteresis (0.01×VTH) to prevent oscillation during threshold crossing. Its internal fixed 3.4V threshold is laser-trimmed during production, eliminating external resistor networks.
Reset assertion occurs within 20µs when VCC drops below 3.4V, and release requires VCC to exceed 3.4V + hysteresis before RESET deasserts; the 450ms timeout ensures sufficient system stabilization after power recovery in microcontroller boot sequences.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Threshold Voltage | 3.4V ±1.5% - precise detection level for 3.3V rail supervision with guaranteed margin against false resets |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA typical - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors without measurable battery drain |
| Reset Timeout | 450ms (typ.) - provides adequate hold time for full microcontroller initialization and peripheral configuration |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - supports wired-OR reset bus architectures and flexible pull-up voltage selection (up to 5.5V) |
| Operating Voltage | 0.9V to 5.5V - allows direct connection to VCC of 1.8V, 3.3V, or 5V logic domains without level-shifting |
| Response Time | 20µs max - ensures rapid fault detection before processor state corruption occurs during undervoltage events |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and consumer ambient environments without derating |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 package (JEDEC TO-236AB), 1.3mm × 2.9mm × 1.0mm body, gull-wing leads, RoHS-compliant matte tin lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground Reference | Low-impedance return path for internal comparator and output stage; must be connected directly to system ground plane |
| 2 (RESET) | Open-Drain Reset Output | Active-low signal asserted when VCC < 3.4V; requires external pull-up (typically 10kΩ to VCC or higher voltage rail) |
| 3 (VCC) | Supply Input | Power source for internal circuitry; also the monitored rail-no separate sense input required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external components | Eliminates BOM cost and PCB area for resistive divider, capacitor timing network, or pull-up resistor (except system-level pull-up) |
| Fixed threshold trim | Laser-trimmed 3.4V reference ensures consistent performance across lots without calibration or trimming steps in production |
| 450ms delay option | Longest available timeout in APX803L series-suited for complex boot sequences requiring extended reset hold in ARM Cortex-M or RISC-V SoCs |
| 1µA supply current | Enables integration into always-on subsystems (e.g., RTC backup domain) without compromising energy budget |
| ±1.5% threshold accuracy | Reduces design margin requirements versus looser-tolerance supervisors, allowing tighter VCC regulation specs |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APX803L40-29SA-7 | Same 3.4V threshold and SOT23 package, but 220ms reset timeout (vs. 450ms) | Suitable for simpler MCUs with faster boot times; insufficient hold time for multi-stage FPGA configuration | Select when shorter reset duration reduces system startup latency without compromising reliability |
| TLV803EA34DBZR | 3.4V threshold, 200ms timeout, 0.6µA supply current, same SOT23-3 package | Lower ICC benefits ultra-low-power designs; reduced timeout limits use in complex boot flows | Prefer for energy-harvesting or sub-µA standby applications where 200ms reset hold is sufficient |
Compared with APX803L40-29SA-7 and TLV803EA34DBZR, the APX803L40-34SA-7 delivers the longest reset hold time in its family-critical for robust initialization of modern SoCs-while maintaining identical accuracy and package compatibility, making it optimal for systems demanding extended reset assertion without increasing board area or component count.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and tolerance for APX803L40-34SA-7?
The APX803L40-34SA-7 has a factory-trimmed detection threshold of 3.4V with a guaranteed accuracy of ±1.5% over -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. This corresponds to a min/max range of 3.349V to 3.451V at +25°C, and includes hysteresis of 0.01×VTH (≈34mV) to prevent chatter near the trip point.
Can APX803L40-34SA-7 monitor a 5V supply rail?
Yes-the device operates with VCC from 0.9V to 5.5V and monitors that same rail. When used on a 5V system, it asserts RESET if VCC falls below 3.4V. The open-drain output supports pull-up to 5.5V, enabling direct interface with 5V logic without level shifters.
Is a pull-up resistor required on the RESET pin?
Yes-an external pull-up resistor (typically 4.7kΩ to 10kΩ) is mandatory on the open-drain RESET pin to define the inactive (high) state voltage level. The value must balance rise time (lower resistance = faster edge) against current draw during RESET assertion (higher resistance = lower sink current).
Does APX803L40-34SA-7 support operation below 1.0V?
No-the minimum recommended operating voltage is 0.9V per datasheet specifications, but functional reset detection is only guaranteed above 1.02×VTH (≥3.468V). Below ~2.5V, internal biasing may become unstable; the device is not characterized or specified for sub-2V operation.
