Product details
Overview
HZ7B2JTA-E from Renesas is a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for low-noise voltage reference and stabilization in precision analog circuits, with a nominal zener voltage of 6.9 V to 7.2 V at 0.5 mA, dynamic resistance of 60 Ω, maximum power dissipation of 400 mW, and junction temperature rating up to 175°C - deployed in high-stability power supply feedback paths and sensor biasing networks.
For engineers reviewing the HZ7B2JTA-E datasheet, HZ7B2JTA-E pinout, HZ7B2JTA-E application, or HZ7B2JTA-E equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±0.3 V), low noise performance (1/3–1/10 of standard HZ series), zener impedance stability across operating current, thermal coefficient behavior below 10 mV/°C, and DO-35 package compatibility with through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator, maintaining stable output voltage under varying load conditions via controlled reverse-biased breakdown. Its low dynamic resistance (60 Ω) and tight zener voltage tolerance ensure minimal regulation error across 0.5–1 mA test currents.
The HZ7B2JTA-E exhibits a zener voltage temperature coefficient near zero (≤ ±0.08 %/°C per Fig.2), enabling stable reference performance over −55°C to +175°C ambient range. Its DO-35 glass package provides hermetic sealing and thermal robustness suitable for industrial-grade analog signal chains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 6.9 V min to 7.2 V max at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback loops |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 60 Ω max at IZ = 0.5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage shift under load transients |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW max at Ta = 25°C - supports continuous operation in compact PCB footprints |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175°C max - enables reliable use in high-temperature industrial environments |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1 μA max at VR = 2.0 V - minimizes quiescent current loss in battery-powered references |
| Package | DO-35 (JEITA GRZZ0002ZB-A) - industry-standard axial leaded glass package with orange body and navy-blue cathode band |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 glass axial-leaded package with orange body color and navy-blue cathode band. Cathode identified by colored band; anode is unmarked lead.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (banded end) | Cathode | Connected to regulated output node; reverse-bias voltage applied here to initiate zener conduction |
| 2 (unbanded end) | Anode | Connected to circuit ground or low-impedance return path; completes shunt regulation loop |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise zener operation | Diode 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 window at 0.5 mA - eliminates need for post-regulation trimming in mid-accuracy systems |
| Low dynamic impedance | 60 Ω max - maintains regulation accuracy even with ±10% load current variation |
| High thermal stability | Temperature coefficient ≤ ±0.08 %/°C - limits drift to < ±0.6 mV/°C over full operating range |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4734A | Zener voltage 5.6 V ±5%, rd = 9 Ω, Pd = 1 W, DO-41 package | Higher power but looser tolerance and higher noise - suited for non-critical regulation only | Select when higher power handling is required and ±5% VZ tolerance is acceptable |
| BZX55C6V2 | Zener voltage 6.2 V ±5%, rd = 10 Ω, Pd = 500 mW, DO-35 package | Lower VZ, wider tolerance, no low-noise specification - lacks documented noise reduction | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where low-noise performance is not required |
Compared with 1N4734A and BZX55C6V2, the HZ7B2JTA-E delivers tighter voltage control (±0.3 V), verified low-noise operation, and superior thermal stability - making it the preferred choice for precision analog reference paths where signal fidelity outweighs raw power capability.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range specified for HZ7B2JTA-E?
The HZ7B2JTA-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 6.9 V minimum to 7.2 V maximum when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This 0.3 V window reflects tight process control for precision reference use, and the value remains stable across its rated current range of 0.5–1 mA. The HZ7B2JTA-E datasheet (REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00) confirms this specification on Page 2 under Electrical Characteristics.
Does HZ7B2JTA-E meet low-noise requirements for audio applications?
Yes - the HZ7B2JTA-E is explicitly characterized for low-noise operation, with diode noise approximately 1/3 to 1/10 that of the standard HZ series. Its low dynamic resistance (60 Ω) and tight voltage tolerance minimize broadband and low-frequency noise contributions, making the HZ7B2JTA-E suitable for microphone preamplifier biasing and DAC reference circuits where signal-to-noise ratio is critical.
What is the package type and marking convention for HZ7B2JTA-E?
HZ7B2JTA-E uses the DO-35 glass axial-leaded package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZB-A), with an orange body and navy-blue cathode band. Pin 1 (cathode) is identified by the banded end; Pin 2 (anode) is the unbanded lead. The "JTA-E" suffix denotes Renesas' internal packaging and testing variant within the HZ-L family, confirmed in the ordering information section of the REJ03G0182-0300 datasheet.
Can HZ7B2JTA-E replace standard Zener diodes like 1N4733A in existing designs?
Direct replacement depends on layout and performance requirements: HZ7B2JTA-E shares the DO-35 footprint with 1N4733A but offers tighter voltage tolerance (±0.3 V vs. ±5%), lower noise, and lower dynamic resistance (60 Ω vs. ~10 Ω). However, its 400 mW power rating is lower than 1N4733A's 1 W. The HZ7B2JTA-E is best suited for precision upgrades - not drop-in swaps - unless thermal and noise margins are prioritized over power headroom.
What is the maximum allowable reverse current before breakdown in HZ7B2JTA-E?
The HZ7B2JTA-E specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 1 μA at VR = 2.0 V and Ta = 25°C. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal parasitic loading in high-impedance reference nodes. Breakdown begins near 6.9 V, and stable zener operation is guaranteed above 0.5 mA forward test current. These values are validated in the Electrical Characteristics table on Page 2 of the HZ7B2JTA-E datasheet.
