Product details
Overview
HZ30-2-E from Renesas is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in stabilized power supplies, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 30.2–31.6 V at 2 mA test current, 23.0 Ω dynamic resistance, 500 mW power dissipation, and DO-35 glass package with navy blue cathode band.
For engineers reviewing the HZ30-2-E datasheet, HZ30-2-E pinout, HZ30-2-E application, or HZ30-2-E equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±1.4 V), temperature coefficient (−0.04 %/°C), low leakage (<1 µA at VR = 23.3 V), and suitability for low-power reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
Technical Context
The HZ30-2-E operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device using avalanche breakdown mechanism, optimized for DC-stable operation with specified test conditions of IZ = 2 mA and Ta = 25°C. Its junction temperature rating of 175°C supports use in thermally constrained environments.
Dynamic resistance of 23.0 Ω at 2 mA ensures stable regulation under moderate load variation, while the −0.04 %/°C temperature coefficient minimizes drift across industrial temperature ranges. The DO-35 package enables through-hole mounting on standard PCBs with 2.0 mm lead diameter and 4.2 mm body width.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 30.2–31.6 V at IZ = 2 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback loops |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 23.0 Ω at IZ = 2 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 500 mW maximum - sets thermal derating limit for continuous operation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | <1 µA at VR = 23.3 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby mode |
| Temperature Coefficient | −0.04 %/°C - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius near 30 V |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175°C maximum - defines upper thermal operating boundary for reliability |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 glass axial-leaded package with navy blue cathode band; dimensions: φD = 2.0 mm (nom), E = 4.2 mm, L = 26.0 mm; mass ≈ 0.13 g; JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (banded end) | Cathode | Connected to regulated output node; reverse-biased terminal during normal operation |
| 2 (non-banded end) | Anode | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; completes bias path for zener conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low dynamic impedance | 23.0 Ω enables tight regulation under varying load currents |
| Narrow zener voltage tolerance | ±1.4 V window at 30 V supports accurate reference design without trimming |
| High junction temperature rating | 175°C allows operation in enclosed or high-ambient industrial enclosures |
| Low reverse leakage | <1 µA at 75% of VZ reduces error in high-impedance sensing paths |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5256BRLG | Zener voltage 30 V ±5%, rd = 35 Ω, Pd = 500 mW, DO-35 package | Wider voltage tolerance increases reference uncertainty; higher rd degrades load regulation | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs precision requirements and ±5% VZ is acceptable |
| BZX55-C30 | Zener voltage 30 V ±5%, rd = 30 Ω, Pd = 500 mW, DO-35 package | Higher temperature coefficient (−0.08 %/°C) doubles drift vs. HZ30-2-E | Prefer for legacy designs where BOM compatibility is prioritized over thermal stability |
Compared with 1N5256BRLG and BZX55-C30, the HZ30-2-E offers tighter voltage tolerance (±1.4 V vs. ±5%), lower dynamic resistance (23 Ω vs. 30–35 Ω), and superior temperature coefficient (−0.04 %/°C), making it optimal for precision reference and low-drift protection circuits where regulation accuracy is critical.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZ30-2-E?
The HZ30-2-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 30.2 V to 31.6 V when tested at IZ = 2 mA and Ta = 25°C, corresponding to the "-2" grade in the HZ30 family. This 1.4 V window reflects tight process control for precision reference applications, and the value is measured under DC conditions per the official Renesas datasheet REJ03G0180-0600 Rev.6.00.
Does HZ30-2-E support surface-mount assembly?
No, the HZ30-2-E uses a DO-35 glass axial-leaded package with 2.0 mm diameter leads and 26 mm length, designed exclusively for through-hole PCB mounting. It is not compatible with reflow or wave soldering processes used for SMD components. For surface-mount alternatives, engineers should evaluate Renesas' HZS series or other qualified SOD-123 Zener diodes, not the HZ30-2-E.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for HZ30-2-E?
The maximum reverse leakage current for HZ30-2-E is less than 1 µA when tested at VR = 23.3 V (75% of minimum VZ) and Ta = 25°C. This low leakage ensures minimal error in high-impedance reference dividers and preserves battery life in always-on monitoring circuits where the HZ30-2-E is deployed.
How does temperature affect the zener voltage of HZ30-2-E?
The HZ30-2-E exhibits a zener voltage temperature coefficient of −0.04 %/°C, meaning its regulated voltage decreases by approximately 12 mV per °C rise near 30 V. This value is confirmed in Figure 2 of the Renesas datasheet and enables predictable drift compensation in industrial temperature ranges (−55°C to +125°C ambient).
Is HZ30-2-E RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the HZ30-2-E meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements and is halogen-free per Renesas' material declarations. The DO-35 glass package contains no lead in solderable terminations, and the device complies with JEDEC J-STD-609A Class 1 for marking. Full compliance documentation is available through Renesas' official product page and Aetrix Electronics' material certification portal for HZ30-2-E.
