Product details
Overview
HZS2.7NB2TA-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in low-power stabilized power supplies. It delivers a nominal zener voltage of 2.75 V (min 2.69 V, max 2.91 V) at 5 mA test current, with dynamic resistance of 100 Ω, maximum power dissipation of 400 mW, and junction temperature rating up to 200°C - enabling use in compact industrial control and sensor biasing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the HZS2.7NB2TA-E datasheet, HZS2.7NB2TA-E pinout, HZS2.7NB2TA-E application, or HZS2.7NB2TA-E equivalent, key selection criteria include its B2-grade zener voltage tolerance (±4.4%), low leakage current (<120 μA at 0.5 V), MHD package compatibility with 5 mm-pitch automated insertion, and suitability for ambient temperatures up to +125°C in PCB-constrained designs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche and Zener breakdown mechanisms optimized for stable regulation below 5 V. Its low dynamic impedance (100 Ω at 5 mA) ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients, while the 200°C maximum junction temperature supports operation in thermally demanding environments without derating until ~100°C ambient.
The HZS2.7NB2TA-E belongs to the HZS-N Series, which uses planar diffusion technology to achieve tight voltage tolerances and repeatable thermal coefficients. Its specified reverse current limit of 120 μA at VR = 0.5 V confirms low leakage behavior critical for battery-powered or high-impedance bias networks.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4732A | Zener voltage 4.7 V (nom), 5% tolerance, 1.0 W power rating, DO-41 package | Higher voltage and power; unsuitable for 2.7 V biasing but usable in higher-voltage shunt regulators | Select only if redesigning for ≥4.7 V reference and requiring higher surge capability |
| BZX55-C2V7 | Zener voltage 2.7 V (nom), 5% tolerance, 500 mW power rating, DO-35 package | Same nominal voltage but wider tolerance (±5% vs. ±4.4%), larger DO-35 body (2.5 mm Ø), different thermal profile | Acceptable substitute where 0.1 V tighter tolerance is non-critical and board space allows DO-35 footprint |
Compared with HZS2.7NB2TA-E, the 1N4732A requires circuit redesign for 4.7 V operation and offers no advantage at 2.7 V, while the BZX55-C2V7 provides equivalent nominal voltage but sacrifices grade-B2 precision and MHD auto-insertion compatibility - making HZS2.7NB2TA-E optimal for high-volume, space-constrained, precision-bias applications.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS2.7NB2TA-E at 5 mA test current?
The HZS2.7NB2TA-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 2.69 V minimum to 2.91 V maximum when tested at IZ = 5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This B2-grade tolerance corresponds to ±4.4% about the nominal 2.75 V value, and is confirmed in the Renesas HZS-N Series datasheet REJ03G0185-0300 Rev.3.00.
Does HZS2.7NB2TA-E support automatic insertion on production lines?
Yes, HZS2.7NB2TA-E uses the MHD package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZC-A), which is explicitly qualified for 5 mm-pitch high-speed automatic insertion per the Renesas datasheet. Its 2.0 mm body diameter, 26 mm length, and axial lead geometry meet IPC-A-610 Class 2 mechanical requirements for pick-and-place and wave soldering.
What is the maximum allowable ambient temperature for continuous operation of HZS2.7NB2TA-E?
HZS2.7NB2TA-E can operate continuously at ambient temperatures up to +125°C when mounted on a standard 100 × 180 × 1.6 mm paper-phenol PCB, as shown in Figure 3 of the Renesas datasheet. Above this, power dissipation must be linearly derated from 400 mW at 25°C to zero at 175°C storage limit.
Is HZS2.7NB2TA-E compliant with RoHS and lead-free assembly processes?
Yes, HZS2.7NB2TA-E meets EU RoHS Directive requirements and is compatible with lead-free reflow profiles. Renesas confirms environmental compliance in its general notices, and the MHD package uses lead-free tinning on copper leads - verified through Renesas' material declarations and JESD22-A112 testing.
How does the dynamic resistance of HZS2.7NB2TA-E affect load regulation performance?
The HZS2.7NB2TA-E specifies dynamic resistance of 100 Ω maximum at IZ = 5 mA. This directly determines load regulation error: for a ±1 mA load step, output voltage shifts by ≤±0.1 V. Lower rd values would improve regulation, but 100 Ω is optimized for stability and noise performance in the 2.7 V range.
