Product details
Overview
HZ18-1TD-P-E from Renesas is a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for low-noise voltage reference and stabilization in precision analog circuits, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 17.3 V (min 16.9 V, max 17.7 V), 400 mW power dissipation, 15 Ω dynamic resistance at 0.5 mA test current, DO-35 glass package, and cathode band marking. It serves in low-drift power supply feedback paths and sensor biasing where noise reduction is critical.
For engineers reviewing the HZ18-1TD-P-E datasheet, HZ18-1TD-P-E pinout, HZ18-1TD-P-E application, or HZ18-1TD-P-E equivalent, key selection criteria include verified zener voltage tolerance (±0.4 V), low noise performance relative to legacy HZ series, thermal coefficient behavior below 0.02 %/°C above 15 V, and DO-35 mechanical compatibility with through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using controlled avalanche breakdown in a silicon planar junction. Its low dynamic impedance (15 Ω) and tight VZ tolerance support stable regulation under varying load currents up to 20 mA.
The HZ18-1TD-P-E exhibits a zener voltage temperature coefficient near zero (≈0.01 %/°C) in the 16–18 V range, confirmed by Figure 2 of REJ03G0182-0300, and maintains ≤1 μA reverse leakage at VR = 13.5 V per absolute maximum ratings.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 16.9 V min / 17.7 V max at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines stable reference window for feedback loop design |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 15 Ω max at IZ = 0.5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage shift under load transients |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW at Ta = 25°C - supports continuous operation in compact PCB footprints without forced cooling |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1 μA max at VR = 13.5 V - preserves accuracy in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175°C max - enables reliable operation in industrial ambient environments up to 125°C with derating |
| Noise Level | ≈1/3–1/10 of standard HZ series - directly reduces RMS noise in reference-sensitive op-amp and ADC circuits |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 glass axial lead package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A), orange body color, navy blue cathode band, 2.0 mm diameter × 26.0 mm length, 0.13 g mass.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| 2 (Anode) | Reference ground return | Biased to circuit common; establishes reference potential for feedback divider or sensor excitation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise Zener structure | Reduces broadband voltage noise by factor of 3–10 vs. HZ-series diodes, critical for 16-bit+ data acquisition systems |
| Tight VZ tolerance | ±0.4 V over 16.9–17.7 V range enables single-part qualification without binning in production calibration |
| Stable temperature coefficient | ≈0.01 %/°C near 17.3 V minimizes drift-induced error in temperature-varying environments |
| Low dynamic impedance | 15 Ω at 0.5 mA ensures <1 mV output shift per 15 μA load change-ideal for high-gain error amplifiers |
| DO-35 mechanical standardization | Compatible with legacy wave-solder and hand-solder tooling; 2.0 mm Ø fits standard 0.035"–0.045" drill holes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4746A (ON Semiconductor) | VZ = 18 V ±5%, rd = 14 Ω, Pd = 1 W, DO-41 package - higher power but wider VZ tolerance and no low-noise specification | Acceptable for general-purpose regulation but unsuitable for sub-10 μV noise-critical signal chains | Select when board space allows larger DO-41 footprint and noise budget permits >3× higher broadband noise |
| BZX85C18 (Nexperia) | VZ = 18 V ±5%, rd = 20 Ω, Pd = 1.3 W, DO-41 - higher power, looser tolerance, uncharacterized noise performance | Used in cost-sensitive industrial supplies where ±5% VZ and 20 Ω rd meet system specs | Choose for non-precision applications where 1.3 W dissipation and DO-41 mounting simplify thermal design |
Compared with 1N4746A and BZX85C18, the HZ18-1TD-P-E delivers tighter VZ tolerance (±0.4 V vs. ±5%), lower noise (1/10 vs. unspecified), and DO-35 compatibility for space-constrained designs-making it optimal for metrology-grade references despite lower power rating.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZ18-1TD-P-E?
The HZ18-1TD-P-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 16.9 V minimum to 17.7 V maximum when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of REJ03G0182-0300. This 0.8 V span reflects tight process control for precision reference use, and the typical value is 17.3 V.
Is HZ18-1TD-P-E compatible with standard DO-35 mounting and soldering processes?
Yes, the HZ18-1TD-P-E uses the industry-standard DO-35 glass axial package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A) with 2.0 mm diameter and 26.0 mm length. It is fully compatible with conventional wave soldering, selective soldering, and hand-soldering using standard DO-35 tooling and 0.035"–0.045" PCB drill holes.
How does the noise performance of HZ18-1TD-P-E compare to generic Zener diodes?
The HZ18-1TD-P-E achieves approximately 1/3 to 1/10 the broadband voltage noise of standard HZ-series Zeners, as stated in the Features section of REJ03G0182-0300. This is achieved via proprietary silicon planar processing and junction optimization-directly measurable as reduced RMS noise in op-amp reference inputs and ADC bias networks.
What is the maximum allowable reverse voltage before breakdown for HZ18-1TD-P-E?
The HZ18-1TD-P-E begins controlled zener breakdown at its specified VZ range (16.9–17.7 V). Per Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device must not be subjected to reverse voltages exceeding its rated VZ by more than the safe operating area defined by Pd = 400 mW - i.e., VR × IR ≤ 400 mW at all times. At VR = 13.5 V, IR ≤ 1 μA.
Does HZ18-1TD-P-E have a specified temperature coefficient, and how does it affect stability?
Yes, Figure 2 in REJ03G0182-0300 shows the HZ18-1TD-P-E exhibits a zener voltage temperature coefficient of approximately 0.01 %/°C near 17.3 V. This translates to <±1.7 mV drift over a 10°C ambient change - enabling stable reference performance in unregulated enclosures and thermally variable industrial environments.
