Product details
Overview
APX803S-46SR-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3-pin SOT23 open-drain microprocessor reset supervisor IC with 4.63V ±0.07V reset threshold, 240ms minimum reset timeout, 10µA typical supply current, and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1V. It monitors 5.0V power rails in embedded controllers and portable systems to prevent erroneous microprocessor startup during brownout or power-up transients.
For engineers reviewing the APX803S-46SR-7 datasheet, APX803S-46SR-7 pinout, APX803S-46SR-7 application, or APX803S-46SR-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include precise 4.63V threshold tolerance, open-drain active-low RESET output compatibility with bidirectional µP reset pins, 240ms timeout duration, low 10µA quiescent current for battery operation, and SOT23-SR package pin mapping.
Technical Context
The APX803S-46SR-7 implements a precision voltage comparator with 30ppm/°C tempco and internal timer circuitry that asserts RESET low when VCC falls below 4.63V and holds it for ≥240ms after VCC rises above threshold. Its open-drain output requires an external pull-up and supports level-shifting across supply domains.
Designed for single-supply monitoring, it ignores fast VCC transients and guarantees valid logic state (RESET = low) for VCC ≥ 1V. The device draws only 10µA at 3.3V and maintains reset assertion even during slow-rising VCC ramps (dVCC/dt ≤ 100 V/µs).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V (min 4.56V, max 4.70V) - precisely matches 5.0V rail monitoring with ±1.5% tolerance at +25°C |
| Reset Timeout | 240ms (min 140ms, max 280ms) - ensures sufficient hold time for full µP initialization after power recovery |
| Supply Current | 10µA (typical) - enables multi-year battery life in portable instrumentation and remote sensors |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - guarantees reset validity down to 1V VCC, supporting brownout detection before system collapse |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low - allows wired-OR configuration, bidirectional µP reset pin interfacing, and flexible pull-up voltage selection |
| Tempco | 30ppm/°C - maintains threshold stability across -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range |
| ESD Protection | 3kV HBM - provides robust handling margin during PCB assembly and field service |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 (SR variant) surface-mount package with 2.9mm × 1.3mm footprint, 0.95mm height, and gull-wing leads. RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, lead-free construction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Reference ground return path for internal comparator and timer; must be connected to system ground plane |
| 2 | VCC | Primary power input; supplies internal circuitry and serves as monitored voltage source |
| 3 | RESET | Open-drain active-low output; sinks current when asserted, requires external pull-up resistor to target logic rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 4.63V threshold | ±0.07V tolerance ensures reliable detection of 5.0V rail undervoltage without false triggering |
| 240ms reset timeout | Guaranteed minimum hold time exceeds typical µP reset requirement specs (e.g., ARM Cortex-M, PIC18) |
| 10µA supply current | Enables direct integration into ultra-low-power wake-on-event architectures without burdening battery sources |
| VCC = 1V reset validity | Prevents metastable reset release during deep brownout, eliminating race conditions in low-VCC logic |
| Open-drain output | Supports mixed-voltage systems: e.g., monitor 5V rail while resetting 3.3V µP via shared pull-up to 3.3V |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Portable Medical Monitors |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| APX809S-46SA-7 | Push-pull active-low RESET output; identical 4.63V threshold and 240ms timeout | Eliminates need for external pull-up resistor but cannot share reset bus with other open-drain devices | Select when board layout lacks space for pull-up or when driving high-capacitance reset lines directly |
| MAX809SEUR+T | 4.63V threshold, 240ms timeout, push-pull output, 1.2µA supply current, −40°C to +125°C rating | Higher temperature grade and lower ICC suit automotive under-hood applications; different pinout (SOT23-3 SA vs SR) | Select for extended temperature environments where Diodes' −40°C to +85°C range is insufficient |
Compared with APX803S-46SR-7, the APX809S-46SA-7 simplifies BOM by removing the pull-up resistor but sacrifices bus-sharing capability, while the MAX809SEUR+T offers superior temperature range and ultra-low ICC at the cost of non-drop-in pin compatibility and higher unit price.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for APX803S-46SR-7?
The APX803S-46SR-7 has a nominal reset threshold of 4.63V, with guaranteed limits of 4.56V (minimum) and 4.70V (maximum) at +25°C. This 4.63V specification targets 5.0V power rails, providing a 7.4% undervoltage margin before reset activation.
Can APX803S-46SR-7 drive a reset line directly without a pull-up resistor?
No - the APX803S-46SR-7 features an open-drain RESET output and requires an external pull-up resistor to a valid logic rail (e.g., 3.3V or 5.0V). Without this resistor, the RESET signal cannot achieve a defined high state, causing undefined microprocessor behavior during normal operation.
How does the 240ms reset timeout behave during repeated voltage dips?
Each time VCC falls below the 4.63V threshold, the internal timer resets and restarts the 240ms countdown. RESET remains low continuously if VCC oscillates near the threshold, ensuring the microprocessor stays held in reset until VCC stabilizes above threshold for the full timeout period.
Is APX803S-46SR-7 compatible with bidirectional microcontroller reset pins?
Yes - its open-drain architecture allows direct connection to bidirectional µP reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11, STM32, PIC18). A single pull-up resistor enables either the APX803S-46SR-7 or the µP itself to assert reset, supporting coordinated system-level recovery sequences.
