Product details
Overview
HZ27-2LTD-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for low-noise voltage reference and stabilization in precision analog circuits, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 26.2–27.6 V at 0.5 mA test current, 24.0 Ω dynamic impedance, 400 mW power dissipation, and DO-35 glass package with navy-blue cathode band. It is used in high-stability power supply feedback paths, sensor excitation references, and instrumentation front-end biasing where low noise and tight voltage tolerance are critical.
For engineers reviewing the HZ27-2LTD-E datasheet, HZ27-2LTD-E pinout, HZ27-2LTD-E application, or HZ27-2LTD-E equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±0.7 V), temperature coefficient (−0.04 %/°C at ~27 V), low leakage (<1 μA at VR = 20.9 V), and compatibility with standard through-hole PCB assembly processes for industrial and test equipment designs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in a planar-diffused silicon junction. Its low-noise performance stems from optimized doping profile and passivation, achieving diode noise ~1/3–1/10 that of legacy HZ-series parts. The DO-35 package ensures thermal stability up to 175°C junction temperature.
Electrical behavior is specified under DC conditions at Ta = 25°C, with zener voltage measured at IZ = 0.5 mA and dynamic resistance derived at IZ = 1 mA. Temperature coefficient curves show monotonic negative drift across the 27 V range, enabling predictable compensation in reference designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 26.2–27.6 V at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines stable regulation point for feedback networks requiring ±0.7 V tolerance |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 24.0 Ω at IZ = 1 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity in shunt reference configurations |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW - sets maximum continuous power handling without derating below 25°C ambient |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | <1 μA at VR = 20.9 V - minimizes error current in high-impedance reference nodes |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175°C - enables operation in thermally demanding environments such as industrial control enclosures |
| Temperature Coefficient (γZ) | −0.04 %/°C - allows accurate prediction of voltage drift over −55°C to +125°C operating range |
Pinout & Package
The HZ27-2LTD-E is housed in a DO-35 glass axial package (Renesas code GRZZ0002ZB-A, JEITA SC-40), with orange body color and navy-blue cathode band marking. Total mass is 0.13 g; lead spacing is 2.0 mm nominal, overall length 26.0 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | High-side reference node | Connected to regulated output or error amplifier inverter input; polarity must be observed to avoid reverse conduction |
| 2 (Anode) | Low-side return path | Tied to ground or common reference plane; forms shunt path for excess current during regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise Zener structure | Diode noise reduced to ~1/3–1/10 of standard HZ series - improves SNR in precision ADC references and low-level signal conditioning |
| Stable zener impedance | 24.0 Ω typical at 1 mA - ensures consistent regulation under varying load currents in feedback loops |
| Wide zener voltage range | 26.2–27.6 V tolerance window - supports design margining for aging and temperature drift in long-life systems |
| High reliability packaging | DO-35 glass envelope with hermetic seal - maintains parameter stability over 10+ years in industrial storage and operation |
| Low leakage specification | <1 μA at 20.9 V reverse bias - prevents reference node loading in µA-scale bias networks |

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 MMBZ5260BLT1G | Zener voltage 27 V ±5%, rd = 35 Ω, SOD-123 surface-mount package | Requires PCB rework for SMT layout; higher impedance increases load regulation error | Select when board space is constrained and thermal budget permits lower Pd (200 mW) |
| Vishay BZX79-C27 | Zener voltage 27 V ±5%, rd = 30 Ω, DO-35 package, noise not characterized | Lacks low-noise optimization; unsuitable for sub-μV noise-critical sensor references | Acceptable for general-purpose stabilization where noise <10× higher is tolerable |
Compared with MMBZ5260BLT1G and BZX79-C27, the HZ27-2LTD-E provides superior noise performance and tighter voltage tolerance in the same DO-35 footprint, making it preferred for metrology-grade references despite higher cost.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of HZ27-2LTD-E at 0.5 mA?
The HZ27-2LTD-E has a zener voltage range of 26.2 V to 27.6 V when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA, corresponding to a ±0.7 V absolute tolerance. This specification is guaranteed per Renesas REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00 and applies to all units within the DO-35 package variant labeled HZ27-2LTD-E.
Does HZ27-2LTD-E meet RoHS requirements?
Yes, HZ27-2LTD-E complies with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU as confirmed by Renesas Electronics' environmental compliance documentation. The DO-35 glass package contains no lead in solderable terminations, and all materials are certified lead-free with homogeneous lead content <1000 ppm.
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HZ27-2LTD-E?
The HZ27-2LTD-E is rated for a maximum junction temperature (Tj) of 175°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Renesas datasheet REJ03G0182-0300. Derating begins above 25°C ambient per the published power dissipation vs. temperature curve.
How does the noise performance of HZ27-2LTD-E compare to standard Zener diodes?
HZ27-2LTD-E achieves approximately 1/3 to 1/10 the diode noise level of conventional HZ-series Zeners due to proprietary planar diffusion and passivation. This is explicitly documented in the Features section of the Renesas datasheet and verified in low-frequency (<10 kHz) spectral measurements for precision reference use.
Is HZ27-2LTD-E suitable for automotive applications?
No - HZ27-2LTD-E is classified as a "Standard" quality grade device per Renesas' product grading system and is intended for computers, office equipment, test instruments, and industrial robots. It is not qualified for automotive use (AEC-Q101) or safety-critical systems; Renesas explicitly restricts its use in transportation equipment without prior written consent.
