Product details
Overview
HZ33-2LTD-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 32.2–33.6 V at 0.5 mA, 400 mW power dissipation, 250 Ω dynamic impedance, and −55 to +175 °C storage temperature range. It is used in high-stability power supplies, sensor excitation circuits, and calibration references where low noise and tight voltage tolerance are critical.
For engineers reviewing the HZ33-2LTD-E datasheet, HZ33-2LTD-E pinout, HZ33-2LTD-E application, or HZ33-2LTD-E equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, DO-35 package details, thermal derating behavior, zener temperature coefficient data, and comparable low-noise Zener alternatives for stable reference design.
Technical Context
The HZ33-2LTD-E operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator with DC-tested zener breakdown characteristics. Its low noise level-approximately 1/3–1/10 that of standard HZ-series diodes-is achieved via optimized silicon planar junction processing and controlled impurity diffusion.
It exhibits a zener voltage temperature coefficient of approximately −0.06 %/°C (−19 mV/°C) near 33 V, confirmed by Figure 2 in REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00, and supports stable regulation up to 175 °C junction temperature with defined derating above 25 °C ambient per Figure 3.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 32.2–33.6 V at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines precise regulation point for mid-range reference designs |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 250 Ω max at IZ = 0.5 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW at Ta = 25 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling before thermal derating |
| Reverse Leakage Current (IR) | 1 μA max at VR = 27 V - ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference nodes |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175 °C - enables operation in elevated-temperature industrial environments with appropriate PCB thermal relief |
| Storage Temperature (Tstg) | −55 to +175 °C - supports wide-range logistics, storage, and non-operational environmental resilience |
| Noise Level | ~1/3–1/10 of standard HZ series - directly reduces RMS noise contribution in precision analog signal chains |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A), glass axial leaded package with orange body and navy-blue cathode band. Dimensions: φD = 2.0 mm, L = 26.0 mm, E = 4.2 mm; mass ≈ 0.13 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Zener breakdown terminal | Connected to higher-potential node; reverse-biased operation requires positive voltage applied here relative to anode |
| 2 (Anode) | Reference ground/reference return | Typically tied to system ground or common return; establishes reference potential for regulated output |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise Zener junction | Reduces RMS noise in voltage references by up to 90% vs. legacy HZ series, critical for 16-bit+ ADC biasing |
| Stable zener impedance | 250 Ω max ensures predictable load regulation and minimal line sensitivity in feedback networks |
| Wide zener voltage range support | Part of HZ-L family spanning 5.2–38 V, enabling consistent low-noise performance across multiple reference points |
| High-temperature reliability | Rated to 175 °C junction temperature with documented derating curve, suitable for under-hood or enclosed industrial use |
| Low leakage specification | 1 μA max at 27 V enables use in ultra-low-current bias networks without compromising accuracy |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MMBZ5262BLT1G | Zener voltage 33 V ±5%, rd = 350 Ω, Pd = 300 mW, noise not specified | Higher dynamic impedance and no published noise spec; suitable only where noise <10 µVRMS is not required | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs noise performance and thermal margin is constrained |
| Vishay BZX84-C33-TP | Zener voltage 33 V ±5%, rd = 300 Ω, Pd = 300 mW, DO-214AC package | SMT-only SOT-23 footprint; lacks low-noise optimization and 400 mW rating; not recommended for precision analog | Choose only for space-constrained PCBs where reworkability and noise immunity are secondary |
Compared with MMBZ5262BLT1G and BZX84-C33-TP, the HZ33-2LTD-E provides superior noise suppression, higher power headroom, and tighter voltage tolerance-making it the preferred choice for metrology-grade references where signal integrity is non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZ33-2LTD-E at 0.5 mA test current?
The HZ33-2LTD-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 32.2 V to 33.6 V when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00. This 1.4 V span reflects the device's precision binning for mid-range reference applications and is distinct from broader-tolerance variants like HZ33-1L or HZ33-3L.
Does HZ33-2LTD-E have a specified temperature coefficient, and how does it affect long-term stability?
Yes, the HZ33-2LTD-E exhibits a zener voltage temperature coefficient of approximately −0.06 %/°C (−19 mV/°C) near 33 V, per Figure 2 in the official datasheet. This negative TC means its output decreases slightly with rising temperature; designers must account for this drift in applications operating across −40 to +85 °C ambient ranges, especially in unregulated enclosures.
Is HZ33-2LTD-E RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, HZ33-2LTD-E conforms to the EU RoHS Directive as confirmed by Renesas Electronics' environmental compliance documentation. The device uses lead-free glass encapsulation and tin-plated leads, meeting exemption 7a for high-melting-temperature soldering alloys, and is rated for Standard quality grade applications including industrial and test equipment.
Can HZ33-2LTD-E be used in series or parallel configurations for higher voltage or current capability?
No-HZ33-2LTD-E is not characterized or recommended for series or parallel operation. Its zener voltage tolerance, dynamic resistance mismatch, and thermal coupling behavior are not specified for multi-diode configurations. For higher voltage references, Renesas recommends discrete resistor-divider networks with buffered outputs or dedicated IC references instead of cascading HZ-L devices.
What is the maximum allowable reverse current before HZ33-2LTD-E exceeds its power rating at 75 °C ambient?
Per Figure 3 (Power Dissipation vs. Ambient Temperature), the HZ33-2LTD-E's derated power limit at Ta = 75 °C is ~280 mW. With VZ ≈ 33 V, the maximum safe reverse current is ~8.5 mA (280 mW ÷ 33 V). Exceeding this risks thermal runaway due to positive feedback between junction heating and zener voltage drift.
