Product details
Overview
HZS27NB2TA-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in stabilized power supplies. It delivers a nominal zener voltage of 27.0 V (min 27.70 V, max 29.13 V at IZ = 5 mA), with dynamic resistance of 21 Ω, maximum power dissipation of 400 mW, and junction temperature rating up to 200°C - enabling use in compact industrial power rails and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the HZS27NB2TA-E datasheet, HZS27NB2TA-E pinout, HZS27NB2TA-E application, or HZS27NB2TA-E equivalent, key selection criteria include its B2-grade zener voltage tolerance (±2.6% typical), low leakage current (<0.2 μA at VR = 21 V), MHD package compatibility with 5 mm-pitch automated insertion, and thermal stability across –55°C to +175°C storage range.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in a planar-diffused silicon junction. Its zener voltage exhibits a positive temperature coefficient above ~5.6 V, confirmed by γZ ≈ +0.055 %/°C at 27 V per Figure 2, making it suitable for temperature-compensated references when paired with negative-TC components.
The HZS27NB2TA-E is rated for 400 mW steady-state dissipation on a standard FR-1 PCB (100 × 180 × 1.6 mm), derating linearly to zero at 150°C ambient per Figure 3. Its 21 Ω dynamic resistance at 5 mA ensures stable regulation under moderate load transients, while the 0.2 μA reverse current at 21 V supports low-power biasing in sensor interfaces and analog front-ends.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 27.70 V min / 29.13 V max at IZ = 5 mA - defines tight regulation window for 27 V reference designs |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 21 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - limits output voltage variation under ±1 mA load changes to ±21 mV |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW maximum - supports continuous operation in space-constrained PCB layouts without forced cooling |
| Reverse Current (IR) | <0.2 μA at VR = 21 V - enables ultra-low quiescent current in battery-backed monitoring circuits |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4750A (ON Semiconductor) | 27 V nominal, ±5% tolerance (25.65–28.35 V), 22 Ω rd, DO-41 package | Wider voltage spread increases calibration burden; DO-41 leads require different insertion tooling | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs precision and automated assembly requirements |
| BZX85C27 (Nexperia) | 27 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 25 Ω rd, DO-41, 1.3 W Pd | Higher power rating suits higher-current shunt regulation but increases board area and thermal mass | Choose for applications needing >400 mW dissipation with relaxed voltage accuracy |
Compared with 1N4750A and BZX85C27, the HZS27NB2TA-E offers tighter B2-grade voltage control and MHD packaging optimized for high-speed insertion - critical for volume-manufactured industrial controllers where test yield and assembly throughput directly impact COGS.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS27NB2TA-E at 5 mA test current?
The HZS27NB2TA-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 27.70 V minimum to 29.13 V maximum when tested at IZ = 5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This B2-grade specification reflects ±2.6% tolerance around the nominal 27 V rating, confirmed in Renesas document REJ03G0185-0300 Rev.3.00.
Does HZS27NB2TA-E support automated PCB assembly?
Yes, the HZS27NB2TA-E uses the MHD package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZC-A) explicitly designed for 5 mm-pitch high-speed automatic insertion. Its axial-leaded form factor, 2.0 mm body diameter, and standardized lead spacing enable direct compatibility with industry-standard pick-and-place and wave-solder equipment.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for HZS27NB2TA-E?
The absolute maximum junction temperature for HZS27NB2TA-E is 200°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Renesas datasheet. This rating permits operation in thermally demanding environments such as motor drive enclosures or sealed industrial housings without external heatsinking.
How does the temperature coefficient of HZS27NB2TA-E affect long-term stability?
The HZS27NB2TA-E exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of approximately +0.055 %/°C at 27 V, meaning its zener voltage increases by ~15 mV per 10°C rise. This predictable drift enables firmware-based compensation in precision measurement systems, unlike lower-voltage Zeners with negative or near-zero tempcos.
Is HZS27NB2TA-E RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, HZS27NB2TA-E meets EU RoHS Directive requirements. Renesas confirms environmental compliance in its product documentation and provides material declarations upon request. The device contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE above threshold limits.
