Product details
Overview
HZS11C1TD-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in stabilized power supply circuits, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 11.6–11.9 V at 5 mA test current, 400 mW power dissipation, and low dynamic resistance of 7.5 Ω - deployed in industrial control power rails and analog reference subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the HZS11C1TD-E datasheet, HZS11C1TD-E pinout, HZS11C1TD-E application, or HZS11C1TD-E equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specifications, package geometry, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts for voltage reference design, ESD-robust biasing, and low-power regulator feedback networks.
Technical Context
The HZS11C1TD-E operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device using avalanche breakdown in a planar-diffused silicon junction. Its zener voltage is specified at 5 mA with ±0.3 V tolerance (11.6–11.9 V), and it exhibits a temperature coefficient of approximately +0.05 %/°C (≈+5.8 mV/°C) near 12 V, enabling stable regulation across −55°C to +175°C storage range.
It supports DC-biased operation only (per datasheet Note 1), with maximum reverse leakage current ≤1 µA at VR = 9.5 V and dynamic impedance measured at 5 mA. The device is not rated for transient surge suppression or AC waveform clamping - its role is strictly steady-state DC voltage stabilization.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 11.6–11.9 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise DC reference point for feedback loops or bias networks. |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW at Ta = 25°C - sets maximum continuous power handling before thermal derating applies. |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 7.5 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity in shunt regulator topologies. |
| Reverse Leakage Current | ≤1 µA at VR = 9.5 V - ensures minimal quiescent current draw in high-impedance reference nodes. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 200°C maximum - enables operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed industrial enclosures. |
| Package Type | MHD (JEITA GRZZ0002ZC-A) - 5 mm pitch, axial-leaded, phenolic board-mount package for high-speed auto-insertion. |
Pinout & Package
MHD package: axial-leaded, cylindrical body with cathode band marking; lead diameter 0.4 mm, overall length 26.0 mm, body diameter 2.0 mm; mass ≈0.084 g; RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | High-side terminal | Connected to regulated voltage node; carries full zener current in shunt configuration. |
| 2 (Anode) | Low-side terminal | Typically grounded or tied to lower potential; completes current path through external series resistor. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low zener impedance | 7.5 Ω at 5 mA - improves regulation accuracy under varying load currents in shunt references. |
| Wide zener voltage range coverage | Part of HZS Series spanning 1.6–38 V - allows selection of optimal reference voltage without redesigning bias network topology. |
| High reliability construction | Silicon planar diffusion process with 200°C max junction temperature - supports long-term stability in industrial-grade applications. |
| Automated assembly compatibility | 5 mm pitch axial leads and MHD package - optimized for high-speed insertion into PCBs using standard pick-and-place equipment. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4742A (ON Semiconductor) | Zener voltage 12 V ±5%, Pd = 1 W, DO-41 package, rd = 9 Ω | Higher power rating but looser voltage tolerance and larger footprint; requires PCB layout revision. | Select when higher power margin is needed and ±5% VZ tolerance is acceptable. |
| BZX55C12 (Vishay) | Zener voltage 12 V ±5%, Pd = 500 mW, DO-35 package, rd = 15 Ω | Same nominal voltage but wider tolerance, higher impedance, and different lead spacing (2.5 mm vs. 5 mm). | Choose only if legacy DO-35 footprint compatibility is required and dynamic impedance >10 Ω is tolerable. |
Compared with 1N4742A and BZX55C12, the HZS11C1TD-E offers tighter voltage tolerance (±0.3 V vs. ±0.6 V), lower dynamic impedance (7.5 Ω vs. ≥9 Ω), and MHD package compatibility with automated insertion - making it preferable for space-constrained, high-accuracy industrial reference designs where 5 mm pitch is standardized.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS11C1TD-E?
The HZS11C1TD-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 11.6 V to 11.9 V when tested at IZ = 5 mA and Ta = 25°C, corresponding to Grade C3 in the HZS11 family per Renesas datasheet REJ03G0184-0500 Rev.5.00. This ±0.15 V tolerance supports high-accuracy reference applications without trimming.
Does HZS11C1TD-E support AC or pulsed operation?
No - the HZS11C1TD-E is specified for DC operation only, as explicitly noted in the datasheet ("Tested with DC"). Its dynamic resistance, leakage, and voltage ratings are characterized under steady-state DC conditions; AC or transient use may cause unpredictable regulation behavior or accelerated degradation.
What is the thermal derating behavior of HZS11C1TD-E above 25°C?
Per Figure 3 in the HZS Series datasheet, HZS11C1TD-E power dissipation linearly derates from 400 mW at 25°C to zero at approximately 150°C ambient. The derating slope is ~3.3 mW/°C above 25°C, requiring thermal design consideration in enclosed or high-ambient environments.
Is HZS11C1TD-E compliant with RoHS and lead-free requirements?
Yes - the HZS11C1TD-E uses RoHS-compliant materials and processes, as confirmed by Renesas' environmental compliance documentation and the "RoHS Directive" reference in the datasheet's environmental notice section. It contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE above threshold limits.
Can HZS11C1TD-E be used in place of a 12 V Zener diode like 1N4742A?
Not as a direct replacement - although both regulate near 12 V, the HZS11C1TD-E has tighter tolerance (11.6–11.9 V vs. 11.4–12.6 V), lower power rating (400 mW vs. 1 W), and different package (MHD vs. DO-41). Substitution requires validation of voltage margin, thermal headroom, and mechanical fit in the target PCB layout.
