Product details
Overview
HZM27NBTR-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon epitaxial planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage stabilization in low-power analog and reference circuits. It delivers a nominal zener voltage of 27 V (min 25.1 V, max 28.9 V) at 2 mA test current, with dynamic resistance of 70 Ω, power dissipation rating of 200 mW, and operates within –55°C to +150°C storage temperature range - commonly used in voltage reference supplies for industrial sensors and power management IC biasing.
For engineers reviewing the HZM27NBTR-E datasheet, HZM27NBTR-E pinout, HZM27NBTR-E application, or HZM27NBTR-E equivalent, key selection considerations include its MPAK surface-mount package, 2 mA zener test current, ±1.9 V zener voltage tolerance, 70 Ω dynamic impedance, and suitability for space-constrained voltage regulation where thermal stability and low leakage are critical.
Technical Context
This device uses a silicon epitaxial planar junction structure optimized for stable reverse-breakdown behavior under DC and low-pulse conditions. Its zener voltage exhibits a positive temperature coefficient near 0.04 mV/°C at 27 V, enabling predictable drift compensation in reference designs.
The HZM27NBTR-E is rated for 2 mA zener test current and 2 μA maximum reverse current at 21 V, supporting reliable clamping and regulation in low-current bias networks. Its 200 mW power dissipation is defined under pulse conditions (Pw = 40 ms), making it appropriate for intermittent or thermally managed stabilization roles.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 25.1 V min to 28.9 V max at IZ = 2 mA - defines usable regulation window for 27 V nominal reference design |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 70 Ω max at IZ = 2 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 2 μA max at VR = 21 V - ensures low leakage in high-impedance bias networks |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 200 mW - sets maximum continuous steady-state power handling under derated ambient conditions |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150 °C max - constrains thermal design margin in enclosed or high-ambient environments |
| Storage Temperature | –55 °C to +150 °C - supports operation across extended industrial and automotive under-hood ranges |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar zener diode voltage stabilization applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C27LT1G | 27 V nominal, SOT-23 package, 90 Ω max rd, 100 mW Pd, 5 mA IZ | Higher dynamic resistance and lower power rating limit use in precision or higher-current regulation | Select when board space allows SOT-23 and thermal budget restricts to <100 mW continuous dissipation |
| MMSZ5256B-TP | 27 V nominal, SOD-123 package, 80 Ω max rd, 500 mW Pd, 20 mA IZ | Higher power rating and different test current shift regulation point; larger footprint than MPAK | Prefer for higher-current clamp roles (>5 mA) where thermal mass and PCB real estate permit SOD-123 mounting |
Compared with BZX84-C27LT1G and MMSZ5256B-TP, the HZM27NBTR-E offers tighter zener voltage tolerance at lower test current (2 mA), lower leakage, and a compact MPAK footprint ideal for ultra-dense industrial PCBs - but requires careful thermal management above 100 mW average dissipation.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of HZM27NBTR-E at 25°C?
The HZM27NBTR-E has a zener voltage range of 25.1 V minimum to 28.9 V maximum at IZ = 2 mA and Ta = 25°C, corresponding to a ±1.9 V absolute tolerance. This grade-B specification ensures consistent performance across production lots without requiring binning or post-assembly calibration in most industrial reference designs.
Does HZM27NBTR-E have a no-connect pin, and how should it be handled on the PCB?
Yes, Pin 1 of the HZM27NBTR-E is designated NC (No Connect) and must remain unconnected on the PCB. It is electrically isolated and serves only mechanical or thermal anchoring purposes. Routing traces or applying solder paste to Pin 1 may cause parasitic coupling or mechanical stress that degrades long-term reliability.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current specified for HZM27NBTR-E?
The HZM27NBTR-E specifies a maximum reverse current (IR) of 2 μA at VR = 21 V and Ta = 25°C. This low leakage supports high-impedance applications such as sensor bias networks and precision voltage dividers where even nanoamp-level errors impact measurement accuracy.
Can HZM27NBTR-E be used in continuous DC regulation, or is it limited to pulsed operation?
The HZM27NBTR-E is rated for 200 mW power dissipation under pulsed conditions (Pw = 40 ms), but its absolute maximum ratings allow continuous DC operation up to 200 mW provided junction temperature remains ≤150°C. Real-world continuous use requires thermal derating based on PCB copper area, ambient temperature, and airflow - typically limiting sustained dissipation to ≤120 mW in standard FR-4 layouts.
What is the temperature coefficient of HZM27NBTR-E, and how does it affect reference stability?
The HZM27NBTR-E exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of approximately +0.04 mV/°C at 27 V, as shown in Figure 2 of the datasheet. This predictable drift enables first-order temperature compensation in multi-diode references and supports stable operation across –40°C to +125°C junction range when combined with proper thermal design.
