Product details
Overview
HZ9B2LTD-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for low-noise voltage regulation in precision analog circuits, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 8.5–8.9 V at 0.5 mA, 400 mW power dissipation, and dynamic impedance of 6.0 Ω - enabling stable reference performance in low-current biasing applications such as sensor signal conditioning and instrumentation amplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the HZ9B2LTD-E datasheet, HZ9B2LTD-E pinout, HZ9B2LTD-E application, or HZ9B2LTD-E equivalent, this device is selected for noise-sensitive DC reference design where low zener impedance, tight voltage tolerance, and minimal temperature coefficient drift are critical - especially when replacing legacy HZ-series diodes requiring improved noise floor and thermal stability.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with a specified test current of 0.5 mA and maximum reverse current of 1 μA at VR = 2.0 V. Its low-noise design achieves approximately 1/3–1/10 the noise level of standard HZ-series diodes, verified under DC test conditions per REJ03G0182-0300 Rev.3.00.
The device uses a DO-35 glass package (RENESAS code GRZZ0002ZB-A, JEITA SC-40), with cathode band marking and orange body color. It exhibits a zener voltage temperature coefficient of −0.04 %/°C (≈ −0.34 mV/°C) near 8.7 V, supporting stable operation across −55°C to +175°C storage and up to 175°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.5–8.9 V at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines precise DC reference point for low-power analog stages |
| Dynamic Impedance (rd) | 6.0 Ω max at IZ = 0.5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW - supports continuous operation in compact PCB layouts without forced cooling |
| Reverse Leakage Current | ≤1 μA at VR = 2.0 V - prevents unwanted current draw in high-impedance bias networks |
| Temperature Coefficient | −0.04 %/°C (≈ −0.34 mV/°C) - enables predictable drift compensation in temperature-varying environments |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175°C max - allows reliable use in industrial ambient conditions up to +125°C with proper derating |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-35 glass axial lead package (RENESAS code GRZZ0002ZB-A, JEITA SC-40), orange body with navy-blue cathode band. Dimensions: φD = 2.0 mm, L = 26.0 mm, E = 4.2 mm. Mass: 0.13 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Breakdown voltage terminal | Connected to higher-potential node; reverse-biased operation establishes regulated voltage drop |
| 2 (Anode) | Reference ground terminal | Typically tied to circuit common; forms return path for zener bias current and load current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise Zener operation | Diode noise level ≈ 1/3–1/10 that of standard HZ series - directly improves SNR in precision ADC references |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MMBZ5233BLT1G | Zener voltage 8.7 V ±5%, rd = 10 Ω, Pd = 300 mW, SOT-23 package | SMT-compatible but higher impedance and wider tolerance - suitable only where board space constraints outweigh noise requirements | Select only if DO-35 axial footprint is unavailable and noise budget allows ≥2× higher dynamic impedance |
| Vishay BZX55-C8V2 | Zener voltage 8.2 V ±5%, rd = 15 Ω, Pd = 500 mW, DO-35 package | Higher tempco (−0.08 %/°C) and noise - acceptable for non-critical power rail clamping but not precision references | Prefer for overvoltage protection in 9 V supply rails; avoid in analog signal chains requiring <10 μV/°C drift |
Compared with MMBZ5233BLT1G and BZX55-C8V2, the HZ9B2LTD-E delivers superior noise performance and tighter voltage control in the same DO-35 form factor - making it the preferred choice for metrology-grade analog subsystems where reference stability directly impacts measurement accuracy.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of HZ9B2LTD-E at 0.5 mA test current?
The HZ9B2LTD-E has a zener voltage range of 8.5 V to 8.9 V at IZ = 0.5 mA, yielding a ±0.2 V absolute tolerance centered on 8.7 V. This tight window reduces post-manufacturing calibration effort in precision analog modules and supports direct replacement of older HZ6B2L variants without circuit redesign.
Does HZ9B2LTD-E meet RoHS compliance requirements?
Yes, the HZ9B2LTD-E complies with EU RoHS Directive requirements as confirmed by Renesas Electronics' environmental documentation. The device contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), or polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) above threshold limits, and is suitable for environmentally regulated industrial and commercial end products.
Can HZ9B2LTD-E be used in place of HZ9B2L without modification?
Yes, HZ9B2LTD-E is a direct functional and mechanical replacement for HZ9B2L - sharing identical DO-35 package dimensions, pinout, zener voltage range (8.5–8.9 V), and electrical specifications. The "TD-E" suffix denotes updated manufacturing and traceability per Renesas' post-merger part numbering convention, with no performance or reliability changes.
What is the maximum allowable ambient temperature for continuous operation of HZ9B2LTD-E?
The HZ9B2LTD-E supports continuous operation up to +125°C ambient temperature when derated per its power dissipation curve (Fig.3). At 25°C, full 400 mW is allowed; at 100°C, maximum dissipation drops to ~220 mW. Junction temperature must remain ≤175°C, requiring appropriate PCB copper area and airflow in sealed enclosures.
How does the noise performance of HZ9B2LTD-E compare to standard Zener diodes?
The HZ9B2LTD-E achieves approximately 1/3–1/10 the noise level of conventional HZ-series Zener diodes, as measured under identical DC test conditions. This reduction directly improves signal-to-noise ratio in applications like photodiode biasing and instrumentation amplifier references, where diode-generated noise contributes measurably to system floor.
