Product details
Overview
HZM4.3NB3TR-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon epitaxial planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage stabilization in low-power analog and power-supply feedback circuits. It delivers a nominal zener voltage of 4.3 V (min 4.28 V, max 4.48 V) at 5 mA, with dynamic resistance of 130 Ω, reverse current ≤10 μA at 1.0 V, and 200 mW power dissipation in the MPAK package - suitable for compact DC-DC converter reference stages.
For engineers reviewing the HZM4.3NB3TR-E datasheet, HZM4.3NB3TR-E pinout, HZM4.3NB3TR-E application, or HZM4.3NB3TR-E equivalent, key selection criteria include its B3-grade voltage tolerance (±0.1 V), low temperature coefficient (~+0.03 mV/°C near 4.3 V), surface-mount MPAK footprint, and suitability for space-constrained voltage reference and overvoltage clamp roles in industrial sensor interfaces and microcontroller supply monitoring.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt regulator, maintaining stable output voltage across varying load currents by conducting excess current to ground when input exceeds the zener threshold. Its epitaxial planar construction ensures tight voltage distribution and repeatable breakdown characteristics under pulsed test conditions (Pw = 40 ms).
The HZM4.3NB3TR-E is optimized for low-noise, low-current regulation tasks - not intended for high-current surge suppression or transient voltage clamping. Its 130 Ω dynamic resistance and 10 μA maximum reverse leakage at VR = 1.0 V define its regulation accuracy and quiescent power loss in bias networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.28 V to 4.48 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise regulation window for 3.3 V/5 V system references. |

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-C4V3 (Diodes Inc.) | Same 4.3 V nominal, SOT-23 package, 350 mW Pd, 90 Ω rd, but ±5% tolerance (vs. HZM4.3NB3TR-E's ±2.3%). | Higher power handling but looser voltage spec - better for general-purpose clamping, less ideal for precision references. | Select when higher surge capability is needed and voltage accuracy is secondary. |
| MMSZ4685 (ON Semiconductor) | 4.3 V nominal, SOD-123 package, 500 mW Pd, 100 Ω rd, ±5% tolerance, 100 nA IR at 1 V (vs. 10 μA). | Lower leakage and higher power, but larger footprint and wider VZ spread - suited for higher-current bias networks. | Select when ultra-low leakage (<100 nA) and robust thermal performance outweigh size constraints. |
Compared with BZX84-C4V3 and MMSZ4685, the HZM4.3NB3TR-E offers superior voltage tightness (B3 grade) and MPAK's ultra-compact footprint - making it optimal for space-limited, high-accuracy reference designs where leakage and thermal mass are secondary concerns.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZM4.3NB3TR-E at 5 mA?
The HZM4.3NB3TR-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 4.28 V to 4.48 V when tested at IZ = 5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This B3-grade specification reflects ±0.1 V tolerance around the nominal 4.3 V value, confirmed in Renesas' R07DS0358EJ0600 datasheet, page 2. The HZM4.3NB3TR-E is characterized using 40 ms pulse testing to avoid thermal effects during measurement.
Does HZM4.3NB3TR-E have a functional third pin, and how should Pin 1 be handled?
No - Pin 1 of the HZM4.3NB3TR-E is designated NC (No Connect) and is internally unconnected. Per the official pin arrangement diagram (R07DS0358EJ0600, page 1), only Pins 2 (Anode) and 3 (Cathode) are electrically active. Pin 1 must remain unconnected on the PCB; routing or soldering to it may compromise reliability or violate Renesas' mounting guidelines for the MPAK package.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for HZM4.3NB3TR-E, and at what voltage is it specified?
The maximum reverse leakage current for HZM4.3NB3TR-E is 10 μA, measured at a reverse voltage (VR) of 1.0 V and ambient temperature of 25°C. This value is explicitly listed in the Electrical Characteristics table (R07DS0358EJ0600, page 2) and defines the device's off-state power loss in low-quiescent-current applications such as battery-backed monitoring circuits using the HZM4.3NB3TR-E.
Can HZM4.3NB3TR-E replace standard 4.3 V Zener diodes like BZX84-C4V3 in existing designs?
The HZM4.3NB3TR-E is not a direct drop-in replacement for BZX84-C4V3 due to different package (MPAK vs. SOT-23), pinout (3-pin with NC vs. 3-pin active), and tighter voltage tolerance (B3 vs. ±5%). While both regulate near 4.3 V, layout changes are required to accommodate the MPAK footprint and unused Pin 1. The HZM4.3NB3TR-E should be selected specifically for applications needing its B3-grade accuracy and compact size - not as a generic substitute.
What is the temperature coefficient of HZM4.3NB3TR-E, and how does it affect voltage stability?
The HZM4.3NB3TR-E exhibits a typical temperature coefficient (γZ) of +0.03 mV/°C near its 4.3 V operating point, as shown in Figure 2 of the datasheet (R07DS0358EJ0600, page 5). This low positive drift means the zener voltage increases by ~0.3 mV per 10°C rise - enabling predictable, minimal deviation across –40°C to +85°C ambient ranges in precision reference designs using the HZM4.3NB3TR-E.
