Product details
Overview
HZ22-3LTD-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for low-noise voltage regulation in precision analog circuits, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 22.3–23.3 V, dynamic resistance of 20.0 Ω at 0.5 mA test current, and maximum power dissipation of 400 mW in a DO-35 package. It serves as a stable reference in low-drift power supplies and sensor biasing networks where noise suppression is critical.
For engineers reviewing the HZ22-3LTD-E datasheet, HZ22-3LTD-E pinout, HZ22-3LTD-E application, or HZ22-3LTD-E equivalent, key selection criteria include its verified low-noise performance (≈1/3–1/10 lower than standard HZ series), tight zener voltage tolerance, temperature coefficient behavior below ±0.08 %/°C in the 22 V range, and suitability for stabilized DC references in instrumentation-grade designs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator with a well-defined breakdown knee and low dynamic impedance, enabling high line and load regulation in feedback-free configurations. Its silicon planar construction ensures repeatable zener characteristics and low leakage (<1 μA at VR = 18.8 V).
The HZ22-3LTD-E exhibits a negative temperature coefficient near −0.06 %/°C (≈−13 mV/°C) in the 22 V range, confirmed by Figure 2 of REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00, making it suitable for temperature-compensated reference stacks when paired with positive-TC devices.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 22.3 V min to 23.3 V max at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines precise regulation band for mid-range reference design |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 20.0 Ω max at IZ = 0.5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW max at Ta = 25°C - supports continuous operation in compact PCB layouts with adequate thermal relief |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1 μA max at VR = 18.8 V - enables high-impedance bias networks without significant error current |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175°C max - allows reliable operation in industrial ambient environments up to +125°C with derating |
| Package | DO-35 (JEITA GRZZ0002ZB-A) - industry-standard axial leaded package compatible with manual and wave soldering |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 glass axial-leaded package with orange body color and navy-blue cathode band. Total mass ≈ 0.13 g. Dimensions per JEITA code: φD = 2.0 mm, E = 4.2 mm, L = 26.0 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Zener breakdown terminal | Connected to higher potential node; reverse-biased operation requires cathode at voltage ≥ VZ relative to anode |
| 2 (Anode) | Reference ground/reference return | Typically tied to circuit common; establishes stable low-impedance reference point for bias or feedback |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise Zener operation | Diode noise level ≈1/3–1/10 that of standard HZ series - directly reduces RMS noise in precision voltage references |
| Tight zener voltage tolerance | ±0.5 V total spread (22.3–23.3 V) at 0.5 mA - enables accurate calibration without post-trim in production |
| Low dynamic impedance | 20.0 Ω max - maintains regulation stability across ±10% load current variation in unregulated supplies |
| High thermal stability | Temperature coefficient ≈ −0.06 %/°C (−13 mV/°C) - predictable drift behavior supports compensation in multi-device references |
| Robust reliability | Rated junction temperature up to 175°C and storage range −55°C to +175°C - qualified for extended-life industrial deployments |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning | Medical Instrumentation Reference |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MMBZ5247BLT1G | Zener voltage 22 V ±5%, rd = 35 Ω, SOT-23 package, 200 mW Pd | SMT-only; higher dynamic resistance increases load regulation error by ~75% vs. HZ22-3LTD-E | Preferred only for space-constrained PCBs where DO-35 mounting is impractical |
| Vishay BZX84-C22LT1G | Zener voltage 22 V ±5%, rd = 50 Ω, SOT-23, 300 mW Pd, no low-noise specification | Lacks documented noise reduction; unsuitable for sub-100 nV/√Hz applications | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-critical reference roles where noise is not specified |
Compared with MMBZ5247BLT1G and BZX84-C22LT1G, the HZ22-3LTD-E delivers superior noise performance, lower dynamic impedance, and higher power handling - making it the preferred choice for metrology-grade references despite its through-hole form factor.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of HZ22-3LTD-E?
The HZ22-3LTD-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 22.3 V minimum to 23.3 V maximum when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA, corresponding to a total spread of 1.0 V. This tolerance is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00 and reflects factory binning for the "3L" variant within the HZ-L family.
Does HZ22-3LTD-E meet RoHS requirements?
Yes, HZ22-3LTD-E complies with the EU RoHS Directive as confirmed by Renesas Electronics' environmental compliance documentation. The device contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), or polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), and is rated for lead-free soldering processes per J-STD-020.
What is the maximum allowable reverse current before breakdown in HZ22-3LTD-E?
The HZ22-3LTD-E specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 1 μA at VR = 18.8 V, per the Electrical Characteristics table. This value is measured well below the nominal zener voltage and confirms minimal off-state conduction - critical for high-impedance bias networks where leakage-induced errors must be minimized.
Can HZ22-3LTD-E be used in surface-mount designs?
No - HZ22-3LTD-E uses a DO-35 axial-leaded glass package (JEITA GRZZ0002ZB-A) and is not compatible with SMT assembly. For surface-mount alternatives, consider SOT-23 Zeners like MMBZ5247BLT1G, though they lack the low-noise performance and 400 mW rating of the HZ22-3LTD-E.
How does the temperature coefficient of HZ22-3LTD-E affect long-term reference stability?
The HZ22-3LTD-E exhibits a temperature coefficient of approximately −0.06 %/°C (≈−13 mV/°C) in the 22 V range, as shown in Figure 2 of REJ03G0182-0300. This predictable negative drift allows designers to compensate using positive-TC components, achieving <±20 ppm/°C net drift in composite references - essential for 16-bit+ data acquisition systems.
