Product details
Overview
HZ4.3CP90TK from Renesas is a silicon planar Zener diode engineered for low-noise voltage regulation in precision analog circuits, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 4.3 V, 400 mW power dissipation, <1 μA reverse leakage at 1 V, and low dynamic impedance of ≤60 Ω at 5 mA - deployed in reference voltage generators and sensor signal conditioning stages.
For engineers reviewing the HZ4.3CP90TK datasheet, HZ4.3CP90TK pinout, HZ4.3CP90TK application, or HZ4.3CP90TK equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±5%), temperature coefficient (−0.05 %/°C), noise performance (1/3–1/10 lower than standard HZ series), and DO-35 package compatibility with through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The HZ4.3CP90TK operates as a two-terminal shunt regulator with DC-tested zener breakdown at 4.3 V ±5% under 5 mA test current. Its low-noise design targets applications requiring stable biasing where thermal drift and broadband noise must be minimized.
It exhibits a negative temperature coefficient of −0.05 %/°C (≈−2.15 mV/°C) and maintains zener impedance ≤60 Ω up to 5 mA, enabling high-accuracy voltage references in low-power instrumentation front-ends and ADC/DAC reference buffers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.3 V ±5% at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise regulation point for low-drift references |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW - supports continuous operation in compact through-hole designs without forced cooling |
| Dynamic Impedance (rd) | ≤60 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | <1 μA at VR = 1 V - reduces error current in high-impedance reference nodes |
| Temperature Coefficient (γZ) | −0.05 %/°C - enables predictable, linear drift compensation in temperature-stable circuits |
| Noise Reduction | 1/3–1/10 lower than HZ series - directly improves SNR in audio preamps and precision measurement front-ends |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C4V3 | 400 mW SOT-23 package; VZ = 4.3 V ±5%; rd = 90 Ω; higher noise than HZ4.3CP90TK | Suitable for space-constrained PCBs but lacks low-noise optimization for precision analog | Select when board area is critical and noise budget allows ≥3× higher voltage noise |
| 1N4730A | 1 W DO-41 package; VZ = 4.3 V ±5%; rd = 150 Ω; no specified low-noise characterization | Higher power handling but unsuitable for noise-sensitive signal chains | Choose only for non-critical biasing where thermal margin outweighs noise performance |
Compared with BZX84-C4V3 and 1N4730A, the HZ4.3CP90TK delivers superior noise suppression and tighter dynamic impedance - making it the sole choice for applications demanding sub-μV RMS noise and stable 4.3 V reference under varying load and temperature.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage tolerance for HZ4.3CP90TK?
The HZ4.3CP90TK has a zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 5 mA test current, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 4.085 V and 4.515 V under standard conditions. This tight tolerance is confirmed in the Renesas HZ-L Series datasheet REJ03G0182-0300 and enables direct use in untrimmed reference designs without external calibration. The HZ4.3CP90TK achieves this via process-controlled doping and post-trim screening during manufacturing.
Does HZ4.3CP90TK support operation above 100°C ambient temperature?
Yes, the HZ4.3CP90TK supports operation up to 175°C junction temperature, and its derated power dissipation remains functional at ambient temperatures exceeding 100°C when mounted on standard FR-4 PCBs with adequate copper pour. The HZ4.3CP90TK's DO-35 package and silicon planar construction ensure thermal stability in industrial control cabinets and automotive under-hood environments - validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108.
How does the noise performance of HZ4.3CP90TK compare to standard Zener diodes?
The HZ4.3CP90TK delivers 70–90% lower broadband voltage noise than conventional Zeners like the HZ series, achieving ≈0.2 μV/√Hz at 1 kHz - a value confirmed in Renesas' low-noise characterization tests. This noise reduction is intrinsic to its optimized planar junction structure and is not achievable through external filtering. Engineers selecting the HZ4.3CP90TK benefit directly from this specification in audio, medical, and metrology signal paths.
Is HZ4.3CP90TK compatible with automated through-hole assembly processes?
Yes, the HZ4.3CP90TK uses the standardized DO-35 axial package (JEITA GRZZ0002ZB-A) with 2.0 mm body diameter and 26 mm lead length, fully compliant with IPC-7351A axial footprint guidelines and compatible with standard wave soldering, selective soldering, and hand-soldering workflows. The HZ4.3CP90TK's orange body and navy-blue cathode band also support automated optical inspection (AOI) for polarity verification.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for HZ4.3CP90TK at 1 V?
The maximum reverse leakage current for HZ4.3CP90TK is less than 1 μA at VR = 1 V and Ta = 25°C, as specified in the Renesas HZ-L Series datasheet. This ultra-low leakage preserves accuracy in high-impedance reference nodes and reduces error contributions in battery-powered devices. The HZ4.3CP90TK maintains this performance across its full operating temperature range due to controlled junction fabrication.
