Product details
Overview
HZ6B1LTD-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 5.65 V (min 5.5 V / max 5.8 V), dynamic resistance of 80 Ω at 0.5 mA, maximum power dissipation of 400 mW, and junction temperature rating up to 175°C. It is used in low-drift bandgap reference buffers, sensor signal conditioning front-ends, and low-noise LDO feedback networks.
For engineers reviewing the HZ6B1LTD-E datasheet, HZ6B1LTD-E pinout, HZ6B1LTD-E application, or HZ6B1LTD-E equivalent, this device is selected for high-stability DC biasing where zener impedance, temperature coefficient (−0.02 %/°C typical), and low leakage (<1 μA at 2.0 V) are critical to minimizing output drift and noise floor in instrumentation-grade designs.
Technical Context
The HZ6B1LTD-E employs a planar-diffused silicon junction structure with controlled doping profiles to achieve reduced flicker noise and improved long-term voltage stability versus legacy HZ-series diodes. Its zener breakdown mechanism operates in the 5–6 V range where temperature coefficient crosses zero, enabling minimal thermal drift in compensated references.
Designed for DC-regulated operation only, it specifies parameters under strictly defined test conditions: zener voltage measured at IZ = 0.5 mA, dynamic resistance at IZ = 1 mA, and reverse current limited to ≤1 μA at VR = 2.0 V - all verified per JEITA ED-4701 Test Method 103.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 5.5 V to 5.8 V at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines stable reference point for ±2.5% tolerance in precision bias networks |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 80 Ω max at IZ = 1 mA - ensures minimal output impedance variation under load transients in feedback paths |
| Reverse Leakage Current | <1 μA at VR = 2.0 V - prevents parasitic current draw that degrades high-impedance node accuracy |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW max at Ta = 25°C - supports continuous operation in compact PCB layouts without forced cooling |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | −55°C to +175°C - enables use in industrial environments with wide ambient swings and localized heating |
| Temperature Coefficient (γZ) | −0.02 %/°C typical at 5.65 V - delivers <±0.1% total drift over −40°C to +85°C in uncompensated circuits |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 glass axial leaded package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A, Renesas code SC-40), 2.0 mm diameter × 26.0 mm body length, orange body color with navy-blue cathode band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Zener breakdown terminal | Connected to regulated positive rail; polarity must be observed to avoid forward conduction and loss of regulation |
| 2 (Anode) | Reference ground return | Provides low-impedance path for zener current; must be tied to stable system ground or virtual ground node |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Noise performance | Approximately 1/3–1/10 lower than standard HZ series - directly reduces RMS noise in voltage references below 10 Hz |
| Zener impedance control | 80 Ω max at 1 mA - maintains regulation accuracy across varying load currents in feedback loops |
| Low leakage specification | <1 μA at 2.0 V reverse bias - preserves high-impedance node integrity in micropower sensor interfaces |
| Voltage range coverage | 5.2 V to 38 V selection within HZ-L family - allows matching to specific IC supply rails or reference voltages |
| Thermal stability | Zero-TC crossing near 5.6 V - minimizes need for external temperature compensation in industrial-grade references |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning | Precision ADC Reference Buffer |
|---|---|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C5V6 (Nexperia) | 5.6 V nominal, 80 Ω rd, but 350 mW Pd and higher noise (no low-noise spec) | Limited to commercial-temp applications; unsuitable for <−25°C or >85°C operation without derating | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs noise and thermal stability requirements |
| MMSZ5232B (ON Semiconductor) | 5.6 V nominal, 17 Ω rd, but 500 mW Pd and −0.05 %/°C TC - higher drift and no low-noise validation | Higher power capability but lacks documented low-noise performance for precision references | Prefer for higher-current shunt regulation where noise is secondary to current-handling |
Compared with BZX84-C5V6 and MMSZ5232B, the HZ6B1LTD-E uniquely combines low-noise operation, tight TC, and industrial-grade thermal margin - making it the only option among the three qualified for sub-0.01% drift references in uncooled industrial enclosures.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage tolerance of HZ6B1LTD-E at 0.5 mA test current?
The HZ6B1LTD-E has a specified zener voltage range of 5.5 V minimum to 5.8 V maximum when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA, corresponding to a ±2.5% tolerance centered on 5.65 V. This tolerance is guaranteed per Renesas REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00 and applies to all units shipped as HZ6B1LTD-E. The HZ6B1LTD-E is not binned beyond this factory-specified range.
Does HZ6B1LTD-E support AC-coupled or transient applications?
No - the HZ6B1LTD-E is characterized and rated exclusively for DC operation, as explicitly stated in the datasheet note "Tested with DC." Its electrical characteristics, including dynamic resistance and noise, are validated only under steady-state DC bias. Using the HZ6B1LTD-E in AC or fast-switching configurations may result in undefined behavior, increased noise, or premature failure due to uncharacterized capacitive coupling or thermal cycling effects.
Is HZ6B1LTD-E RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes - the HZ6B1LTD-E meets EU RoHS Directive requirements and is manufactured as a lead-free device. Renesas confirms compliance in its environmental documentation, and the DO-35 package uses matte tin-plated leads. No exemptions apply, and the part carries full substance declaration per IPC-1752A. This compliance is verified for all production lots of HZ6B1LTD-E supplied by Aetrix Electronics.
What is the maximum allowable ambient temperature for continuous operation of HZ6B1LTD-E at full 400 mW dissipation?
The HZ6B1LTD-E achieves its full 400 mW power rating only at Ta = 25°C. Above this temperature, derating is required per the "Power Dissipation vs. Ambient Temperature" curve on page 4 of REJ03G0182-0300. At 75°C ambient, the maximum safe dissipation drops to approximately 240 mW. Exceeding the derated limit risks junction temperature exceeding 175°C and permanent parametric shift or failure of the HZ6B1LTD-E.
Can HZ6B1LTD-E be used as a direct replacement for older HZ6B1L parts?
Yes - the HZ6B1LTD-E is a direct form-fit-function replacement for HZ6B1L, sharing identical DO-35 packaging, pinout, zener voltage range (5.5–5.8 V), dynamic resistance (80 Ω), and absolute maximum ratings. The "TD-E" suffix denotes updated traceability and RoHS-compliant manufacturing per Renesas' post-2010 consolidation, with no electrical or thermal performance changes from the original HZ6B1L specification.
