Product details
Overview
HZM3.0NB2TR-E from Renesas Electronics (formerly Hitachi) 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 3.0 V (2.95–3.20 V at 5 mA), with dynamic resistance of 120 Ω, reverse current ≤1.0 µA at 1.0 V, and power dissipation up to 200 mW in the MPAK package - commonly used in voltage regulation for sensor biasing, ADC references, and power supply feedback networks.
For engineers reviewing the HZM3.0NB2TR-E datasheet, HZM3.0NB2TR-E pinout, HZM3.0NB2TR-E application, or HZM3.0NB2TR-E equivalent, key selection criteria include its tight zener voltage tolerance (B2 grade), low dynamic impedance, surface-mount MPAK footprint, and suitability for space-constrained 3.0 V reference designs requiring stable temperature coefficient behavior.
Technical Context
The HZM3.0NB2TR-E operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device using controlled avalanche and Zener breakdown mechanisms. Its B2 grade specifies a zener voltage range of 2.95 V to 3.20 V at IZ = 5 mA, with temperature coefficient near zero crossing (~0.01 %/°C at ~3.0 V) per Figure 2 of the datasheet.
It is rated for junction temperatures up to 150°C and storage from –55°C to +150°C, with absolute maximum power dissipation of 200 mW at Ta = 25°C - derating linearly above 25°C per Fig. 3. The device uses an epitaxial planar structure for improved stability and reproducibility versus diffused Zeners.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 2.95–3.20 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise 3.0 V stabilization window for low-voltage reference use. |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 120 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity in shunt regulator topologies. |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤1.0 µA at VR = 1.0 V - ensures minimal leakage in standby or high-impedance bias networks. |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 200 mW at Ta = 25°C - sets maximum continuous power handling before thermal derating applies. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150°C max - defines upper thermal limit for reliable long-term operation in enclosed or hot environments. |
| Package | MPAK (JEDEC SC-59A) - 3-pin SMT package with NC, Anode, Cathode; enables high-density PCB layout and automated assembly. |
Pinout & Package
MPAK package (JEDEC SC-59A), 3-terminal surface-mount outline with non-functional lead 1 (NC), lead 2 (Anode), and lead 3 (Cathode). Dimensions: 2.8 × 1.9 × 0.95 mm (L × W × H), weight 0.011 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | No Connect (NC) | Electrically isolated; no internal connection - must remain unconnected or floating on PCB. |
| 2 | Anode | Connected to lower-potential node in reverse-bias configuration; current enters here during zener conduction. |
| 3 | Cathode | Connected to higher-potential node; zener voltage develops across cathode-to-anode terminals under reverse bias. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Tight Zener Voltage Tolerance (B2 Grade) | 2.95–3.20 V at 5 mA - reduces calibration overhead in precision 3.0 V reference designs. |
| Low Dynamic Impedance | 120 Ω max - improves regulation against load transients in shunt-based voltage references. |
| Surface-Mount MPAK Package | SC-59A footprint - supports high-density placement and reflow-compatible manufacturing. |
| Stable Temperature Coefficient | ~0.01 %/°C near 3.0 V - minimizes drift over industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Biasing | ADC Reference Voltage Source |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Providing stable excitation voltage to resistive temperature detectors (RTDs) or bridge sensors in PLC analog input modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt voltage reference establishing fixed 3.0 V bias point independent of supply variation.

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-C3V0LT1G | Zener voltage 2.8–3.2 V (±6.7%), rd = 90 Ω max, SOT-23 package, Pd = 300 mW. | Higher power rating but looser initial tolerance; lacks B1/B2/B3 grading granularity. | Preferred when higher surge power handling is needed and tighter voltage binning is not required. |
| MMSZ4684T1G | Zener voltage 2.85–3.15 V (±5%), rd = 150 Ω max, SOD-123 package, Pd = 500 mW. | Larger SOD-123 footprint and higher power; less stable tempco (~0.05 %/°C) than HZM3.0NB2TR-E. | Chosen for cost-sensitive consumer applications where thermal drift is less critical and layout space allows larger package. |
Compared with BZX84-C3V0LT1G and MMSZ4684T1G, the HZM3.0NB2TR-E offers superior voltage binning control (B2 grade), lower temperature coefficient near 3.0 V, and a compact MPAK footprint - making it optimal for high-accuracy, space-constrained industrial references where consistent performance across production lots matters.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZM3.0NB2TR-E?
The HZM3.0NB2TR-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 2.95 V to 3.20 V at test current IZ = 5 mA, per its B2 grade designation in the official Renesas datasheet (ADE-208-130C Rev. 3). This binning ensures tighter distribution than standard B-grade parts and supports precision reference design without post-production sorting.
Is pin 1 of HZM3.0NB2TR-E electrically connected?
No - pin 1 of the HZM3.0NB2TR-E is a No Connect (NC) terminal with no internal electrical connection. As confirmed in the "Outline" diagram and "Mark Code" section of the datasheet, only pins 2 (Anode) and 3 (Cathode) are functional; pin 1 must remain unconnected on the PCB to avoid mechanical stress or unintended coupling.
What is the maximum power dissipation for HZM3.0NB2TR-E at 70°C ambient?
At Ta = 70°C, the HZM3.0NB2TR-E's maximum power dissipation is derated to approximately 120 mW, calculated using the linear derating slope shown in Fig. 3 of the datasheet (200 mW at 25°C, zero at ~125°C). This ensures junction temperature remains below 150°C under continuous operation.
Does HZM3.0NB2TR-E have a specified temperature coefficient?
Yes - the HZM3.0NB2TR-E exhibits a temperature coefficient near zero crossing at ~3.0 V, measured at approximately +0.01 %/°C per Figure 2 of the datasheet. This low drift supports stable reference performance across –40°C to +85°C industrial operating ranges without external compensation.
Can HZM3.0NB2TR-E replace a generic 3.0 V Zener diode in existing designs?
Yes, the HZM3.0NB2TR-E can directly replace generic 3.0 V Zeners in most shunt reference applications, provided the MPAK footprint is accommodated and the B2-grade voltage range (2.95–3.20 V) meets system accuracy requirements. Its 120 Ω dynamic resistance and 1.0 µA leakage at 1.0 V offer improved regulation versus many legacy parts.
