Product details
Overview
HZ7A1LTA-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 6.3–6.6 V at 0.5 mA, dynamic resistance of 60 Ω max, and 400 mW power dissipation in DO-35 package - deployed in regulated power supplies, sensor biasing, and ADC reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the HZ7A1LTA-E datasheet, HZ7A1LTA-E pinout, HZ7A1LTA-E application, or HZ7A1LTA-E equivalent, this part delivers verified low-noise performance (≈1/3–1/10 lower than legacy HZ series), tight zener voltage tolerance, and stable temperature coefficient - critical for high-accuracy voltage references in industrial instrumentation and medical signal conditioning.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator with DC-tested zener breakdown characteristics. Its low dynamic impedance (≤60 Ω at IZ = 0.5 mA) and low leakage current (<1 μA at VR = 2.0 V) support stable regulation under light-load and low-current conditions typical in reference design.
The HZ7A1LTA-E exhibits a zener voltage temperature coefficient of approximately −0.02 %/°C (−0.10 mV/°C) near 6.5 V, confirmed by Figure 2 in REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00, enabling predictable drift compensation in ambient-temperature-varying environments up to +125°C derated operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 6.3–6.6 V at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines precise regulation point for low-power reference nodes |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | ≤60 Ω at IZ = 0.5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW at Ta = 25°C - supports continuous operation in compact PCB layouts without forced cooling |
| Reverse Leakage Current (IR) | ≤1 μA at VR = 2.0 V - preserves accuracy in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | −55 to +175°C - enables deployment in extended-temperature industrial environments |
| Noise Level | ≈1/3–1/10 of standard HZ-series diodes - reduces RMS noise contribution in sensitive analog front-ends |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A), glass axial leaded package with orange body and navy-blue cathode band. Dimensions per SC-40 outline: 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 establishes stable reference voltage |
| 2 (Anode) | Reference ground return | Provides low-impedance path to circuit common; must be routed with minimal trace inductance for noise control |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise zener structure | Diode noise reduced to ≈1/3–1/10 of HZ-series - directly improves SNR in precision voltage references |
| Stable low-impedance regulation | rd ≤ 60 Ω at 0.5 mA - maintains <0.1% output deviation across 10–90% load current range |
| Wide zener voltage range coverage | Part of HZ-L family spanning 5.2–38 V - allows single-supplier sourcing for multi-rail reference designs |
| High thermal robustness | Tj rating of +175°C - supports reliability in sealed enclosures or high-ambient-temperature applications |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MMBZ5231BS | Zener voltage 6.2 V (±5%), rd = 17 Ω @ 20 mA - lower impedance but higher test current; not rated for low-noise use | Optimized for general-purpose regulation, not low-noise analog references | Select only when noise <100 nV/√Hz is not required and higher test current is acceptable |
| Vishay BZX84-C6V2 | Zener voltage 6.2 V (±5%), rd = 60 Ω @ 5 mA - same impedance spec but tested at 5× higher current; no published noise data | Designed for cost-sensitive consumer power rails, not precision instrumentation | Use only in non-critical biasing where long-term drift and noise are unmonitored |
Compared with MMBZ5231BS and BZX84-C6V2, the HZ7A1LTA-E uniquely specifies low-noise performance, tighter voltage tolerance (±2.4% vs. ±5%), and validated 0.5 mA test condition - making it the sole choice for sub-100 ppm accuracy analog references where noise and drift govern system specification.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZ7A1LTA-E at 0.5 mA?
The HZ7A1LTA-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 6.3 V to 6.6 V when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA and Ta = 25°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 2 of REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00. This 300 mV span reflects tight process control for precision reference use, and the HZ7A1LTA-E must be selected within this band for calibrated circuit operation.
Does HZ7A1LTA-E meet RoHS requirements?
Yes, the HZ7A1LTA-E complies with the EU RoHS Directive, as confirmed by Renesas Electronics' environmental compliance documentation and material declarations. The DO-35 glass package contains no lead in solderable terminations, and all homogeneous materials meet the maximum concentration limits for restricted substances - consistent with Renesas' commitment to environmentally responsible manufacturing.
What is the maximum allowable ambient temperature for continuous operation of HZ7A1LTA-E?
The HZ7A1LTA-E supports continuous operation up to +125°C ambient temperature when derated per the Power Dissipation vs. Ambient Temperature curve (Figure 3, page 4). At Ta = 125°C, its usable power dissipation drops to ≈180 mW; full 400 mW rating applies only at Ta = 25°C. Thermal design must account for PCB copper area and airflow to maintain junction temperature ≤175°C.
Is HZ7A1LTA-E suitable for life-support medical equipment?
No, the HZ7A1LTA-E is classified as a "Standard" quality grade device per Renesas' quality grading system (page 7, Note 7), intended for applications such as industrial robots and test equipment - not for life-support medical systems. Renesas explicitly prohibits use in artificial life support devices, surgical implants, or healthcare interventions without prior written consent, and the HZ7A1LTA-E carries no qualification for such "Specific" applications.
How does the noise performance of HZ7A1LTA-E compare to standard Zener diodes?
The HZ7A1LTA-E achieves approximately 1/3 to 1/10 the noise level of conventional HZ-series Zener diodes, as stated in the Features section (page 1). This reduction is achieved through proprietary silicon planar processing and optimized junction geometry - directly lowering RMS broadband noise in voltage reference paths, which is measurable and critical for 16+ bit data acquisition systems using the HZ7A1LTA-E.
