Product details
Overview
APX811-23UG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 4-pin microprocessor supervisor IC with manual reset input, precision 2.25V reset threshold (±1.5% over -40°C to +85°C), push-pull active-low RESET output, and fixed 200ms power-on reset timeout. It monitors VCC in 2.5V/3.0V/3.3V/5.0V systems and asserts reset during brownout or manual trigger via MR pin - used in embedded controllers and battery-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the APX811-23UG-7 datasheet, APX811-23UG-7 pinout, APX811-23UG-7 application, or APX811-23UG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (2.25V ±1.5%), guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1.1V, SOT143 package footprint, industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), and compatibility with low-power MCU reset logic requiring active-low assertion.
Technical Context
The APX811-23UG-7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference and comparator to detect VCC falling below 2.25V, triggering an internal timer that holds RESET low for ≥240ms after recovery. Its push-pull output drives CMOS inputs directly without external pull-up resistors above VCC = 1V.
Manual reset is implemented as an active-low asynchronous input (MR) with 100ns minimum pulse width tolerance and full specification across temperature. The device draws only 30–40µA supply current and features ESD protection (3kV HBM), enabling robust operation in noisy industrial environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.25V ±1.5% - ensures reliable reset assertion before 2.5V system brownout |
| Reset Timeout | 200ms typ. (140–280ms) - meets JEDEC JESD8-12B tRP requirement for most MCUs |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.1V to 5.5V - supports operation during deep brownout and multi-rail systems |
| Quiescent Current | 30–40µA at 25°C - enables use in always-on battery-backed monitoring circuits |
| Output Type | Push-pull active-low - eliminates need for external pull-up; sinks 1.2mA min. at VCC > VTH +0.2V |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - fully specified for industrial-grade embedded applications |
| ESD Rating | 3kV HBM - provides immunity against handling and board-level electrostatic discharge |
Pinout & Package
SOT143 (4-pin, 1.4mm × 2.5mm, 0.95mm height) - green, lead-free, RoHS-compliant package with exposed pad not electrically connected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Top-left) | VCC | Power supply input - must be decoupled with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor near pin |
| 2 (Top-right) | MR | Manual reset input - active-low; requires external pull-up for noise immunity |
| 3 (Bottom-right) | GND | Ground reference - connects to system ground plane for stable threshold reference |
| 4 (Bottom-left) | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output - drives MCU /RESET pin directly; no external resistor needed above 1V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision reset threshold | 2.25V ±1.5% over full temperature range - eliminates margining uncertainty in 2.5V systems |
| Guaranteed reset assertion down to VCC = 1.1V | Enables valid reset signaling even during severe brownout conditions prior to MCU lockup |
| Internal 200ms timeout with automatic restart on re-brownout | Prevents premature MCU release during unstable power recovery; no external timing components required |
| MR input with 100ns pulse rejection | Rejects EMI-induced glitches while responding reliably to user-initiated reset switches |
| SOT143 footprint compatibility | Matches industry-standard 4-pin supervisor layout - simplifies PCB redesign and second-source migration |
Applications
| Industrial Controllers | Portable Medical Instruments |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: PLC I/O modules operating in factory environments with fluctuating 24V-derived 3.3V rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3V VCC, asserts active-low RESET to ARM Cortex-M4 MCU during voltage sag, with 200ms hold time ensuring firmware reload stability. Use Value: Prevents corrupted register writes during undervoltage by guaranteeing reset remains asserted until rail stabilizes - validated per IEC 61000-4-11. | Use Scenario: Handheld glucose meters powered by single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V) with ultra-low standby current. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 2.5V LDO output feeding MSP430 MCU; triggers reset at 2.25V to avoid flash corruption during battery depletion. Use Value: 35µA typical supply current extends battery life beyond 12 months in sleep mode while maintaining precise brownout detection. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | Smart Energy Meters |
Use Scenario: 12V-to-3.3V converted subsystems in door module ECUs exposed to load dump transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects post-transient VCC collapse below 2.25V and asserts RESET to prevent CAN controller initialization errors. Use Value: Push-pull output drives ISO 11898-compliant transceiver reset pins without external components - reduces BOM count and board area. | Use Scenario: Two-way AMI meters with backup supercapacitor maintaining RTC and memory during AC outage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3V main rail and asserts RESET to secure microcontroller when voltage drops below 2.25V during capacitor discharge. Use Value: 2.25V threshold aligns precisely with supercapacitor end-of-discharge voltage (2.2V–2.3V), maximizing usable backup energy. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809SEUR+T | 2.5V reset threshold, SOT23-3 package, no MR input | Lacks manual reset functionality; requires external switch circuitry for field service reset | Select when MR is unnecessary and board space permits SOT23-3 footprint |
| TPS3808G12DBVR | 2.5V threshold, adjustable delay (0.5–10s), 1.8–6V VCC range | Higher quiescent current (1.2µA typ.) and longer minimum delay limit use in fast-recovery systems | Choose when programmable timeout and wider supply range outweigh cost and size penalties |
Compared with MAX809SEUR+T and TPS3808G12DBVR, APX811-23UG-7 offers the only combination of 2.25V precision threshold, integrated MR, SOT143 footprint, and sub-40µA current - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-sensitive 2.5V systems requiring deterministic reset behavior.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and its tolerance for APX811-23UG-7?
The APX811-23UG-7 has a nominal reset threshold of 2.25V with ±1.5% tolerance over the full industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), as confirmed in the DS31960 datasheet Electrical Characteristics table (page 4). This value is laser-trimmed at wafer test and does not require external calibration.
Does APX811-23UG-7 require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
No - the APX811-23UG-7 uses a push-pull output stage, so RESET is actively driven low or high without needing external pull-up or pull-down resistors. However, a 100kΩ pull-down is recommended only if valid logic state must be maintained when VCC falls below 1V, per Application Information section (page 7).
Can the manual reset (MR) pin be left floating in the circuit?
No - the MR pin must be externally pulled high (typically to VCC via 10kΩ–100kΩ) to prevent spurious reset assertion from noise or leakage. The datasheet specifies MR as active-low with no internal pull-up, and floating operation violates Recommended Operating Conditions (page 4).
Is APX811-23UG-7 qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q100?
No - APX811-23UG-7 is specified for industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Diodes Incorporated offers the APX811Q series (e.g., APX811Q-23W5-7) for automotive-grade applications, which includes extended temperature testing and PPAP documentation.
