Product details
Overview
HZ11C1LRE-E from Renesas is a silicon planar Zener diode engineered for low-noise voltage regulation in precision analog circuits, with a nominal zener voltage of 10.9–11.3 V, 400 mW power dissipation, 80 Ω dynamic impedance at 0.5 mA, and DO-35 glass package. It serves in stabilized power supplies, reference voltage sources, and noise-sensitive instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the HZ11C1LRE-E datasheet, HZ11C1LRE-E pinout, HZ11C1LRE-E application, or HZ11C1LRE-E equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±2%), low noise performance (1/3–1/10 of standard HZ series), temperature coefficient (−0.02 %/°C typical), and DO-35 mechanical compatibility for through-hole PCB assembly.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in a planar-diffused silicon junction. Its low dynamic resistance (80 Ω) and tight zener voltage tolerance (10.9–11.3 V at 0.5 mA) enable stable regulation under varying load conditions.
The HZ11C1LRE-E exhibits a negative temperature coefficient of −0.02 %/°C, minimizing drift across ambient temperatures from −55°C to +175°C, and is rated for 400 mW DC power dissipation with junction temperature up to 175°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 10.9–11.3 V at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback loops |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 80 Ω max at IZ = 0.5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW at Ta = 25°C - supports compact thermal design without forced cooling |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 1 μA max at VR = 8.0 V - guarantees low leakage in high-impedance bias networks |
| Temperature Coefficient (γZ) | −0.02 %/°C typical - enables predictable, low-drift behavior over industrial temperature range |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175°C max - allows operation in thermally demanding environments such as power supply enclosures |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 glass axial lead package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A), orange body color, navy blue cathode band. Dimensions per SC-40 standard: φD = 2.0 mm, L = 26.0 mm, E = 4.2 mm, mass ≈ 0.13 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Negative terminal of zener junction | Connected to regulated output node; polarity must be observed for correct breakdown conduction |
| 2 (Anode) | Positive terminal of zener junction | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; completes reverse-biased path for regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise Zener operation | Diode noise level ~1/3–1/10 that of standard HZ series - critical for audio preamps and sensor front-ends |
| Tight zener voltage tolerance | ±2% over 10.9–11.3 V range - reduces need for post-regulation trimming in precision references |
| Low dynamic impedance | 80 Ω max at 0.5 mA - improves line/load regulation by limiting output impedance in shunt configuration |
| High thermal stability | −0.02 %/°C tempco and 175°C Tj rating - maintains accuracy in unregulated ambient conditions |

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZ11C1LRE-E?
The HZ11C1LRE-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 10.9 V to 11.3 V when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This ±2% tolerance is tighter than standard Zener diodes and supports precision reference designs without external trimming. The HZ11C1LRE-E achieves this via controlled planar diffusion and screening during manufacturing.
Is HZ11C1LRE-E suitable for low-noise applications?
Yes, the HZ11C1LRE-E is explicitly characterized for low-noise operation, with noise levels approximately 1/3 to 1/10 that of the legacy HZ series. Its silicon planar construction and optimized junction design minimize avalanche noise, making the HZ11C1LRE-E appropriate for audio preamplifiers, sensor front-ends, and other noise-critical analog circuits.
What package type does HZ11C1LRE-E use and what are its key dimensions?
The HZ11C1LRE-E uses the DO-35 glass axial package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A), with an orange body and navy blue cathode band. Key dimensions: diameter φD = 2.0 mm, overall length L = 26.0 mm, lead spacing E = 4.2 mm, and typical mass of 0.13 g. It conforms to SC-40 mechanical standards.
What is the maximum power dissipation and thermal rating of HZ11C1LRE-E?
The HZ11C1LRE-E is rated for 400 mW maximum power dissipation at Ta = 25°C and has a maximum junction temperature of 175°C. Its derating curve shows linear reduction above 25°C ambient, supporting reliable operation in enclosed power supplies and industrial enclosures without active cooling.
Does HZ11C1LRE-E have a specified temperature coefficient?
Yes, the HZ11C1LRE-E exhibits a typical zener voltage temperature coefficient (γZ) of −0.02 %/°C, as confirmed in Renesas' characteristic curves. This low, predictable drift enables stable reference performance across −55°C to +175°C storage and operational ranges, critical for outdoor and industrial deployments.
