Product details
Overview
APX811-29UG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 4-pin microprocessor supervisor IC with manual reset input, precision 2.93 V reset threshold, active-low push-pull RESET output, 200 ms power-on reset timeout, and SOT143 package. It monitors 3.3 V systems in industrial temperature range (–40 °C to +85 °C) and asserts reset during brownout or manual trigger to prevent MCU malfunction.
For engineers reviewing the APX811-29UG-7 datasheet, APX811-29UG-7 pinout, APX811-29UG-7 application, or APX811-29UG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (±1.5 %), guaranteed reset assertion down to VCC = 1.0 V, MR input compatibility with standard logic levels, and green RoHS-compliant SOT143 packaging for space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The APX811-29UG-7 integrates a precision voltage reference, comparator, 200 ms delay timer, and push-pull output driver. Its reset threshold is trimmed to 2.93 V ±1.5 % at 25 °C and maintains stability across –40 °C to +85 °C with <0.02 %/°C drift.
It features a dedicated active-low manual reset (MR) input that forces RESET low independently of VCC, and guarantees valid RESET output state for VCC ≥ 1.0 V - enabling reliable initialization in low-voltage brownout recovery scenarios.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93 V ±1.5 % at 25 °C; ensures reliable reset assertion before 3.3 V system brownout reaches critical level |
| Reset Timeout | 200 ms typ. (140–280 ms); provides sufficient hold time for full MCU core and peripheral initialization |
| Supply Current | 40 µA max at VCC = Vth + 0.2 V; enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed systems |
| Output Type | Push-pull active-low RESET; eliminates need for external pull-up resistor and supports direct MCU reset pin drive |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +85 °C; fully specified across industrial range without derating or guard-banding |
| VCC Range | 1.1 V to 5.5 V; supports supervision of 2.5 V, 3.0 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V rails with same device family |
Pinout & Package
SOT143 (4-pin, 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm, 0.95 mm height) - lead-free, green molding compound, RoHS compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VCC) | Power supply input | Supplies internal circuitry; must be decoupled locally to ensure noise immunity during reset assertion |
| 2 (MR) | Manual reset input | Active-low; pulls RESET low when asserted, independent of VCC status - enables hardware-initiated reset |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for all internal currents; requires low-impedance connection to minimize ground bounce during RESET transitions |
| 4 (RESET) | Active-low reset output | Push-pull driver sinks up to 3.2 mA; asserts logic low during fault or manual trigger, releases high after timeout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 2.93 V threshold | ±1.5 % tolerance ensures deterministic reset point for 3.3 V systems without margin uncertainty |
| 200 ms fixed timeout | Guaranteed minimum 140 ms hold time prevents premature release before MCU clock stabilization |
| MR input with no external pull-up | Internal weak pull-up on MR allows direct switch-to-ground connection - reduces BOM count and layout area |
| Valid RESET down to VCC = 1.0 V | Enables robust reset assertion even during deep brownout; avoids floating reset state in low-VCC recovery |
| SOT143 green package | Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant footprint saves 30 % board area vs. SOIC-8 while maintaining thermal performance |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Medical Diagnostic Handhelds |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Power sequencing and brownout protection in programmable logic controllers operating in factory-floor environments with fluctuating 24 V DC supplies converted to 3.3 V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervisor IC asserting active-low RESET to ARM Cortex-M7 MCU during undervoltage events and manual maintenance reset. Use Value: Prevents corrupted firmware execution during line sags; 2.93 V threshold aligns precisely with 3.3 V rail tolerance (±3 %), eliminating false resets. |
Use Scenario: Battery-powered ultrasound imaging handheld requiring fail-safe boot integrity after cold start or partial discharge. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Microprocessor supervisor monitoring regulated 3.3 V rail derived from Li-ion battery; triggers reset if voltage drops below 2.93 V during pulse-heavy acquisition. Use Value: 40 µA quiescent current extends battery life; 200 ms timeout ensures ADC and RF front-end clocks stabilize before firmware execution resumes. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | Smart Energy Meters |
Use Scenario: Supervision of 3.3 V microcontroller supply in non-safety-critical body electronics exposed to automotive load-dump and cold-crank transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reset generator interfacing with Infineon AURIX TC3xx MCU; MR pin tied to service-mode diagnostic button. Use Value: Manual reset capability enables field technician recovery without power cycle; -40 °C to +85 °C rating meets AEC-Q200 ambient requirements. |
Use Scenario: Tamper-resistant electricity meter with isolated MCU and real-time clock, powered by supercapacitor backup during mains outage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervisor ensuring clean reset of STMicro STM32L4 MCU when supercap voltage falls below 2.93 V during extended blackout. Use Value: Push-pull RESET eliminates external pull-up, reducing leakage paths critical for >10-year metrology battery life; green SOT143 supports compact PCB stacking. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD3T | 2.93 V threshold, SOT23-3, no MR input, open-drain RESET | Lacks manual reset functionality; requires external pull-up resistor | Select when board space permits SOT23-3 and MR is unnecessary; not suitable for field-service reset scenarios |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3 V threshold, SOT23-6, adjustable delay (200 ms default), MR input, push-pull | Higher threshold (3.3 V) increases risk of late reset assertion in 3.3 V systems with tight tolerances | Prefer when delay configurability or wider VCC range (1.5–6.5 V) is required; verify timing margins against 2.93 V brownout point |
Compared with MAX809TRD3T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the APX811-29UG-7 uniquely combines precise 2.93 V threshold, integrated MR, push-pull output, and SOT143 footprint - delivering deterministic reset behavior in space-constrained 3.3 V industrial systems without external components or timing ambiguity.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and its tolerance for APX811-29UG-7?
The APX811-29UG-7 has a nominal reset threshold of 2.93 V with ±1.5 % tolerance at 25 °C, confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table (DS31960, page 4). This value remains stable across –40 °C to +85 °C, with typical drift less than 0.02 %/°C per the RESET Threshold Voltage vs. Temperature plot (page 6).
Does APX811-29UG-7 require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
No. The APX811-29UG-7 uses a push-pull output stage, so RESET drives actively high or low without external biasing. This eliminates the need for a pull-up resistor, reducing component count and avoiding leakage-related issues in low-power systems - explicitly stated in the Application Information section (page 7).
Can the manual reset (MR) pin be left unconnected, or does it require a pull-up?
The MR pin has an internal weak pull-up; it may be left unconnected if manual reset is unused. When used, it is active-low and should be pulled to GND via a momentary switch. No external pull-up is needed - this is documented in the Pin Descriptions (page 3) and Application Information (page 7).
Is APX811-29UG-7 qualified for automotive applications?
The APX811-29UG-7 is rated for –40 °C to +85 °C and RoHS-compliant, but it is not AEC-Q200 qualified. Diodes Incorporated explicitly states in the datasheet that products are "not authorized for use as critical components in life support devices or systems" and does not list automotive qualification for this part - making it suitable for industrial and commercial, but not safety-critical automotive applications.
