Product details
Overview
HZ5A2JTD-E from Renesas is a silicon planar Zener diode engineered for low-noise voltage regulation in precision analog circuits, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 5.6 V (min 5.3 V, max 5.6 V), 400 mW power dissipation, 80 Ω dynamic impedance at 0.5 mA test current, and DO-35 glass package with navy-blue cathode band. It serves as a stable reference in low-drift power supplies and sensor biasing networks.
For engineers reviewing the HZ5A2JTD-E datasheet, HZ5A2JTD-E pinout, HZ5A2JTD-E application, or HZ5A2JTD-E equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±0.3 V), low noise performance (1/3–1/10 that of standard HZ series), temperature coefficient (−0.04 %/°C typical), and thermal stability up to 175°C junction temperature.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in a planar-diffused silicon junction. Its low dynamic resistance (80 Ω) and tight zener voltage tolerance ensure minimal output variation under load and line changes.
Designed for DC-stabilized operation, HZ5A2JTD-E exhibits a negative temperature coefficient (−0.04 %/°C) optimized for 5.6 V regulation, enabling predictable drift compensation in feedback loops without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 5.3 V min to 5.6 V max at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines precise regulation window for low-voltage reference design |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 80 Ω max at IZ = 0.5 mA - ensures minimal output impedance and high ripple rejection |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW at Ta = 25°C - supports continuous operation in compact PCB layouts without forced cooling |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175°C maximum - enables reliable use in industrial ambient environments up to 125°C with derating |
| Reverse Leakage Current (IR) | 1 μA max at VR = 2.0 V - guarantees negligible error current in high-impedance reference nodes |
| Temperature Coefficient (γZ) | −0.04 %/°C typical - provides predictable, linear drift for calibration-critical applications |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 glass axial lead package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A), orange body color, navy-blue cathode band, 2.0 mm diameter × 26.0 mm length, 0.13 g mass.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | High-side terminal of reverse-biased junction | Connected to regulated voltage node; polarity must be observed to avoid forward conduction |
| 2 (Anode) | Low-side terminal of reverse-biased junction | Typically grounded or tied to lower potential; establishes reference return path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise Zener operation | Noise level reduced to 1/3–1/10 of standard HZ series - critical for audio preamps and precision ADC references |
| Tight zener voltage tolerance | ±0.3 V over 5.3–5.6 V range - eliminates need for post-assembly trimming in production |
| Stable temperature coefficient | −0.04 %/°C typical at 5.6 V - enables predictable drift behavior across −55°C to +125°C operating range |
| Low leakage current | ≤1 μA at 2.0 V reverse bias - preserves accuracy in high-impedance voltage divider and sensor bias networks |
| Robust thermal rating | 175°C max junction temperature - supports long-term reliability in sealed enclosures and automotive under-hood locations |
Applications
| Instrumentation Reference | Low-Noise Audio Biasing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX55-C5V6 (ON Semiconductor) | Same 5.6 V nominal, but 100 Ω rd, higher noise, 500 mW Pd, DO-35 package | Higher dynamic impedance limits use in fast transient-sensitive references | Select when higher power margin is needed and noise is secondary to cost |
| MMSZ5232B (Diodes Inc.) | 5.6 V nominal, 100 Ω rd, SOD-123 surface-mount, 500 mW Pd, no low-noise specification | Surface-mount form factor requires layout change; lacks documented noise advantage | Select for automated assembly where board space is constrained and noise spec is relaxed |
Compared with BZX55-C5V6 and MMSZ5232B, HZ5A2JTD-E delivers superior noise performance and tighter dynamic impedance at identical voltage grade, making it preferred for metrology-grade references-though its through-hole DO-35 package requires manual or wave-solder placement.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range specified for HZ5A2JTD-E?
The HZ5A2JTD-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 5.3 V minimum to 5.6 V maximum when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This 0.3 V tolerance reflects tight binning for precision reference use, and the device is part of the HZ-L Series' "B2" variant group, which consistently targets mid-range values within the 5.2–5.9 V family.
Does HZ5A2JTD-E support operation above 125°C ambient temperature?
Yes, HZ5A2JTD-E is rated for storage from −55°C to +175°C and junction temperature up to 175°C. At 125°C ambient, its power dissipation must be derated per Figure 3 in the datasheet (REJ03G0182-0300), reducing usable Pd to approximately 220 mW. The device remains fully functional and stable within this derated envelope.
How does the noise performance of HZ5A2JTD-E compare to standard Zener diodes?
HZ5A2JTD-E achieves approximately 1/3 to 1/10 the noise level of conventional HZ-series Zeners due to optimized planar junction processing and low-leakage design. This is confirmed in the "Features" section of REJ03G0182-0300 and validated by Renesas' low-noise characterization methodology-making HZ5A2JTD-E suitable for sub-10 μV RMS noise-critical signal chains.
Is HZ5A2JTD-E compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
HZ5A2JTD-E uses a DO-35 glass package with axial leads and is intended for through-hole mounting. While not designed for reflow, it withstands wave soldering profiles compliant with JEDEC J-STD-020 up to 260°C peak for 10 seconds. Lead-free wave soldering is supported; reflow is not recommended due to thermal stress on glass-to-metal seals.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for HZ5A2JTD-E at 2.0 V?
The reverse leakage current (IR) for HZ5A2JTD-E is specified as ≤1 μA maximum when tested at VR = 2.0 V and Ta = 25°C. This low leakage ensures minimal error contribution in high-impedance reference dividers and maintains accuracy in battery-powered sensor nodes where quiescent current matters.
