Product details
Overview
APX803L40-44SA-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a micro-power voltage detector IC designed for µP supervisory circuits, providing precise 4.4V threshold detection with ±1.5% accuracy, 1µA typical supply current, 450ms reset timeout, and open-drain active-low RESET output in SOT23 package - used in battery-powered IoT sensors and portable medical devices to ensure reliable power-on reset sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the APX803L40-44SA-7 datasheet, APX803L40-44SA-7 pinout, APX803L40-44SA-7 application, or APX803L40-44SA-7 equivalent, this device delivers verified low-current supervision with factory-trimmed 4.4V detection, fixed 450ms delay, and SOT23-compatible footprint for space-constrained embedded systems requiring stable brown-out protection.
Technical Context
The APX803L40-44SA-7 integrates a precision bandgap reference, comparator, and internal hysteresis (0.01×VTH) to monitor VCC against a fixed 4.4V threshold. It asserts an open-drain RESET signal within 20µs when VCC drops below 4.4V and holds it active for exactly 450ms after recovery above 4.4V.
No external components are required: the device operates from 0.9V to 5.5V supply, draws only 1µA typical current, and maintains ±1.5% threshold accuracy over -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature with 50ppm/°C temperature coefficient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.4V ±1.5% - factory-trimmed detection level ensures consistent brown-out response across production units |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA (typ.) - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered devices without measurable battery drain |
| Reset Timeout | 450ms - guarantees sufficient hold time for slow-ramping power supplies and full µP initialization |
| Response Time | 20µs - fast assertion prevents logic glitches during transient undervoltage events |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - supports wired-OR reset bus configurations and flexible pull-up voltage selection |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C - validated for industrial and consumer-grade embedded applications |
| Hysteresis | 0.01×VTH (44mV) - prevents oscillation near threshold during noisy or slowly recovering supply conditions |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 package (JEDEC MO-178AA), 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 for internal circuitry and reset comparator; must be connected directly to system ground plane |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low output; requires external pull-up resistor to define logic-high level and sink capability |
| 3 | VCC | Power supply input; monitors this rail for undervoltage; operates down to 0.9V with full specification compliance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 4.4V threshold | Eliminates external resistor network, reducing BOM count and layout area while guaranteeing repeatable trip point |
| 450ms factory-set delay | Removes need for timing capacitor; ensures deterministic reset duration independent of PCB parasitics or temperature drift |
| 1µA supply current | Enables integration into always-on subsystems (e.g., RTC backup rails) without compromising energy budget |
| ±1.5% threshold accuracy | Reduces design margin requirements versus looser-tolerance supervisors, supporting tighter supply rail design |
| Open-drain RESET | Allows shared reset bus across multiple ICs and compatibility with 1.8V–5V logic families via selectable pull-up voltage |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Wearable ECG patch monitoring battery voltage during continuous 72-hour acquisition. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage supervisor asserting RESET until Li-ion cell recovers from load-induced sag above 4.4V, then holding 450ms for ADC calibration. Use Value: Prevents corrupted waveform capture by blocking µP execution until stable power is confirmed, using only 1µA quiescent current. | Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted analog input module powered from 5V DC-DC converter with variable load transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 5V rail; triggers system-wide reset on brief dips caused by solenoid switching, with 450ms timeout ensuring firmware reload completes. Use Value: Eliminates field failures from partial boot sequences, leveraging ±1.5% threshold accuracy to avoid false resets near nominal 5V. |
| Smart Home Hub Power Management | Asset Tracking GPS Loggers |
Use Scenario: Battery-backed hub entering low-power mode with 3.3V LDO supplying Wi-Fi SoC and BLE radio. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects 4.4V drop on main 5V input to initiate graceful shutdown and preserve flash memory integrity before brown-out. Use Value: Enables deterministic power-fail interrupt generation with sub-20µs latency, avoiding data corruption during unexpected AC loss. | Use Scenario: Solar-charged GPS tracker operating intermittently in remote locations with wide temperature swings (-25°C to +70°C). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises supercapacitor backup rail; asserts RESET if voltage falls below 4.4V during cold-start, holding 450ms for GNSS chip initialization. Use Value: Maintains ±1.5% threshold accuracy across temperature, preventing premature resets in freezing conditions where battery voltage sags. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APX803L40-44SR-7 | Same 4.4V threshold and 450ms delay, but SOT23R package variant with different pinout (GND on Pin 2, RESET on Pin 1) | Requires PCB layout revision due to swapped GND/RESET pins; identical electrical behavior | Select only if redesigning for SOT23R footprint compatibility or sourcing constraints |
| TLV803E44DBZR | 4.4V threshold, 200ms delay (not 450ms), 0.5µA supply current, same SOT23-3 package and pinout | Lacks required 450ms timeout; suitable only where shorter reset hold time is acceptable | Choose only if system timing budget allows 200ms instead of 450ms and ultra-low 0.5µA current is prioritized |
Compared with APX803L40-44SR-7, the SA variant offers direct SOT23-3 pin compatibility; compared with TLV803E44DBZR, it provides the exact 450ms delay needed for robust µP initialization in power-constrained designs, at the cost of slightly higher quiescent current.

FAQ
What is the exact reset timeout period for APX803L40-44SA-7?
The APX803L40-44SA-7 provides a factory-programmed reset active timeout period of 450ms, measured from the moment VCC rises above 1.02×VTH (4.488V) until RESET deasserts. This value is specified as 292ms (min) to 608ms (max) across temperature and process variation, with 450ms being the typical value at +25°C.
Does APX803L40-44SA-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 voltage (e.g., 1.8V, 3.3V, or 5V). The datasheet specifies maximum sink current of 20mA and recommends a pull-up value between 10kΩ and 100kΩ depending on bus capacitance and rise-time requirements.
Can APX803L40-44SA-7 operate with a 3.3V supply rail?
No - the APX803L40-44SA-7 monitors VCC for drops below its fixed 4.4V threshold; it cannot supervise a 3.3V rail. For 3.3V systems, Diodes offers APX803L33 variants (e.g., APX803L33-33SA-7) with 3.3V threshold and matching 450ms delay option.
Is APX803L40-44SA-7 qualified for automotive applications?
No - APX803L40-44SA-7 is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Diodes offers the pin-compatible APX809L44 series (e.g., APX809L44-44SA-7) for automotive use, which includes extended temperature range (-40°C to +125°C), PPAP support, and IATF 16949 manufacturing certification.
