Product details
Overview
APX824-26W5G-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-threshold processor supervisory circuit with active-high reset output, 2.63 V supply voltage supervision, 200 ms power-on reset delay, and integrated watchdog timer. It monitors VCC in DSP/microprocessor systems, asserts RESET during brownout or startup, and supports manual reset triggering via WDI transitions. Used in industrial controllers and portable embedded systems requiring reliable power sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the APX824-26W5G-7 datasheet, APX824-26W5G-7 pinout, APX824-26W5G-7 application, or APX824-26W5G-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.63 V threshold accuracy (±30 mV), 1.6 s watchdog timeout, SOT25 package footprint, and compatibility with 2.5–5.5 V supply rails in temperature-critical environments.
Technical Context
The APX824-26W5G-7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference to generate a stable 2.63 V negative-going threshold (VTH−) with 50 mV hysteresis, ensuring immunity to supply noise during VCC transitions. Its internal RC timing network sets a typ. 200 ms reset delay (td) after VCC exceeds VTH−, guaranteeing full system initialization before release.
Watchdog functionality responds to edge-triggered transitions on WDI - either rising or falling - with a 1.12–2.4 s timeout window (ttout = 1.6 s typ.). The active-high RESET output drives loads up to 150 μA at VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC, while sinking 3 mA at VOL ≤ 0.4 V for robust interface compatibility.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.63 V (VTH−), ±30 mV over −40°C to +85°C - ensures accurate brownout detection at nominal 2.5 V/3.3 V rails |
| Reset Delay Time | 200 ms typ., 140–280 ms range - guarantees sufficient processor core and peripheral initialization time |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6 s typ., 1.12–2.4 s range - provides fail-safe recovery window for firmware lockup in real-time control loops |
| Supply Current | 30 μA typ., 40 μA max at VCC = VTH−+0.2 V - enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed systems |
| Operating Voltage | 1.1–5.5 V - supports direct integration with 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains without external regulators |
| Output Type | Active-high RESET - simplifies interface with microcontrollers requiring high-valid reset assertion (e.g., ARM Cortex-M series) |
| Temperature Range | −40°C to +85°C - validated for industrial-grade reliability in uncontrolled ambient environments |
Pinout & Package
SOT25-5 package: 2.8 mm × 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm body, 0.95 mm pitch, matte tin-plated leads, moisture sensitivity level 3 per J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VCC | Positive supply input | Accepts 1.1–5.5 V; powers internal reference, timer, and output driver; requires 0.1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuits; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into threshold comparator |
| 3 - RESET | Active-high reset output | Drives high when VCC > VTH− + delay; sinks 3 mA min at VOL ≤ 0.4 V; compatible with standard CMOS input thresholds |
| 4 - WDI | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive (rising/falling); re-triggers watchdog timer; left floating disables watchdog function |
| 5 - NC | No connect | Internally unused terminal; must remain unconnected per datasheet - no routing or grounding permitted |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 2.63 V supervision threshold | Factory-trimmed internal resistor divider eliminates external component dependency and calibration effort |
| 200 ms power-on reset delay | Monolithic RC timing ensures consistent release timing across voltage and temperature without external capacitor |
| Edge-triggered watchdog timer | Supports both rising and falling edges on WDI - accommodates diverse MCU GPIO configurations without signal inversion |
| Active-high RESET output | Directly interfaces with processors requiring high-valid reset (e.g., STM32, NXP Kinetis), reducing board-level logic |
| 30 μA typical supply current | Enables use in always-on subsystems (e.g., RTC backup domain monitoring) without compromising battery life |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Portable Medical Monitors |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Power-up sequencing and runtime fault detection in programmable logic controllers operating in factory-floor environments with fluctuating 24 V DC supplies stepped down to 3.3 V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.3 V rail, asserts RESET during undervoltage events, and triggers watchdog recovery if main controller firmware hangs during analog I/O sampling. Use Value: Prevents spurious relay actuation or sensor data corruption by enforcing deterministic reset behavior aligned with IEC 61131-2 timing requirements. |
Use Scenario: Battery-powered ECG and SpO₂ monitors requiring guaranteed boot integrity and low-power sleep-mode supervision. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 2.5 V LDO output powering the MCU and analog front-end; maintains RESET until stable VCC and clears it only after 200 ms delay to allow ADC reference settling. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete RC reset networks and reduces BOM count while meeting ISO 13485 design control traceability for Class II medical devices. |
| Wireless Sensor Nodes | Embedded HMI Panels |
Use Scenario: Sub-GHz LoRaWAN nodes powered by coin-cell batteries or energy harvesters with highly variable input voltage profiles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects VCC drop below 2.63 V during RF transmission bursts and initiates controlled shutdown via active-high RESET to preserve flash memory integrity. Use Value: Enables reliable brownout recovery without external supervisor ICs, reducing PCB area by 30% versus discrete solutions. |
Use Scenario: Touchscreen-based human-machine interface panels in HVAC control cabinets exposed to thermal cycling between −25°C and +70°C. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides cold-start reset at power application and continuous watchdog supervision of display controller firmware executing GUI rendering tasks. Use Value: Guarantees display initialization completes before touch driver loads, preventing unresponsive UI during field deployment. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar processor supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326UT26+T | 2.63 V threshold, 200 ms delay, SOT23-5, but lacks watchdog timer and manual reset input | Requires external watchdog circuitry for safety-critical reboot; limited to basic power-on reset only | Select when watchdog functionality is unnecessary and footprint compatibility with legacy MAX63xx designs is required |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3 V threshold, 200 ms delay, SOT23-6, includes watchdog and manual reset, but higher 12 μA quiescent current | Not suitable for 2.63 V rail supervision; requires level-shifting for 2.5 V systems | Choose only if system uses 3.3 V supply and TI ecosystem integration (e.g., with TPS6598x PMICs) is prioritized |
Compared with MAX6326UT26+T and TPS3808G33DBVR, APX824-26W5G-7 uniquely delivers 2.63 V supervision, integrated watchdog, and active-high reset in a 5-pin SOT25 - enabling single-chip solution for 2.5 V/3.3 V industrial microcontrollers without redesigning power tree or adding discrete timers.

FAQ
What is the function of the NC pin (Pin 5) on APX824-26W5G-7?
Pin 5 is a no-connect terminal with no internal connection. It must remain unconnected - neither routed nor grounded - as specified in the Diodes datasheet DS31323 Rev. 5-2. Connecting or loading this pin may cause unpredictable behavior or violate absolute maximum ratings due to potential internal parasitic coupling.
Can APX824-26W5G-7 supervise a 2.5 V rail despite its 2.63 V threshold?
Yes. The device asserts RESET when VCC falls below 2.63 V, providing 130 mV of margin above the 2.5 V nominal rail. This ensures robust brownout detection before the microcontroller's minimum operating voltage (typically 2.4 V) is reached, preventing undefined state execution.
How does the watchdog timer respond to WDI signal transitions?
The watchdog resets its internal timer on every rising or falling edge at WDI. If no transition occurs within 1.12–2.4 s (1.6 s typ.), RESET goes high for 200 ms. Leaving WDI open disables watchdog functionality entirely - no pull-up or pull-down is required.
Is APX824-26W5G-7 qualified for automotive applications?
No. While rated for −40°C to +85°C, APX824-26W5G-7 is not AEC-Q100 qualified and lacks PPAP documentation or IATF 16949 manufacturing certification. Diodes offers separate APX82x-AQ variants for automotive use; this part is intended for industrial and commercial applications only.
