Product details
Overview
HZS2C2TD-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in low-power stabilized power supplies, with a nominal zener voltage of 2.4 V (min 2.4 V / max 2.6 V), 400 mW power dissipation, and dynamic resistance of 100 Ω at 5 mA test current. It operates within −55°C to +175°C storage temperature range and features low leakage and low zener impedance.
For engineers reviewing the HZS2C2TD-E datasheet, HZS2C2TD-E pinout, HZS2C2TD-E application, or HZS2C2TD-E equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±0.2 V), DC-tested dynamic impedance, MHD package compatibility with 5 mm-pitch automated insertion, and suitability for industrial-grade stabilized biasing and reference circuits.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage reference diode operating in reverse breakdown mode, with zener voltage specified under DC test conditions at 5 mA. Its planar construction ensures stable thermal characteristics and low noise performance in analog signal conditioning paths.
The HZS2C2TD-E exhibits a negative zener voltage temperature coefficient typical of low-voltage Zeners (<5 V), requiring careful thermal design in high-precision references. Its 200°C maximum junction temperature rating supports operation in compact, thermally constrained PCB layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 2.4 V min / 2.6 V max at IZ = 5 mA - defines tight 0.2 V tolerance band for stable low-voltage reference generation |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW - enables use in space-constrained linear regulators without forced cooling |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 100 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 25 µA max at VR = 0.5 V - guarantees low standby power loss in battery-backed circuits |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 200°C - supports reliable operation in high-ambient industrial environments |
| Storage Temperature | −55°C to +175°C - compatible with extended-range automotive and industrial reflow and storage cycles |
Pinout & Package
The HZS2C2TD-E is housed in the MHD package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZC-A), a miniature axial-lead plastic package with 2.0 mm diameter and 26.0 mm body length, optimized for high-speed automatic insertion at 5 mm pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Zener cathode terminal | Connected to higher potential node; marked by lake-blue band; carries regulated output voltage when reverse-biased |
| 2 (Anode) | Zener anode terminal | Connected to lower potential (typically ground or return path); completes reverse-bias conduction path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low zener impedance | 100 Ω max ensures <1% output deviation under ±1 mA load change at 5 mA bias |
| Wide zener voltage spectrum | Part of HZS Series covering 1.6–38 V - allows single-supplier sourcing across multiple voltage rails |
| Automated insertion compatibility | MHD package supports 5 mm-pitch pick-and-place - reduces assembly cost in high-volume consumer electronics |
| High junction temperature rating | 200°C Tj max enables placement near heat-generating components without derating |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4730A | 5% VZ tolerance (3.9 V nominal), 1 W Pd, DO-41 package | Higher power, looser tolerance, larger footprint - suited for general-purpose regulation, not precision biasing | Select when board space allows DO-41 and ±5% voltage accuracy is acceptable |
| BZX55C2V4 | 2.4 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 500 mW Pd, DO-35 package | Same VZ but wider tolerance and different thermal profile - requires layout review for thermal coupling | Choose if existing DO-35 footprint reuse is prioritized over tight VZ control |
Compared with 1N4730A and BZX55C2V4, the HZS2C2TD-E offers superior voltage precision (±0.2 V vs. ±5%), lower dynamic impedance (100 Ω vs. ≥150 Ω), and MHD package compatibility with high-speed SMT lines - making it optimal for miniaturized, high-accuracy industrial references.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS2C2TD-E?
The HZS2C2TD-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 2.4 V minimum to 2.6 V maximum when tested at 5 mA DC current, corresponding to the "C2" grade in the HZS2 subfamily. This 0.2 V window provides tighter regulation than standard 5% tolerance Zeners and is confirmed in the Renesas REJ03G0184-0500 datasheet, page 2.
Is HZS2C2TD-E RoHS compliant?
Yes, HZS2C2TD-E meets EU RoHS Directive requirements as stated in Renesas documentation and confirmed through material declarations. The MHD package uses lead-free terminations and halogen-free molding compound, supporting environmentally compliant manufacturing for global electronics production.
What is the maximum allowable reverse current before breakdown for HZS2C2TD-E?
The HZS2C2TD-E specifies a maximum reverse current (IR) of 25 µA at VR = 0.5 V, measured at 25°C. This low leakage ensures minimal quiescent power draw in always-on reference circuits and contributes to high-impedance node stability in precision analog designs.
Can HZS2C2TD-E be used in place of HZS2B2?
No - HZS2B2 has a zener voltage range of 2.0 V to 2.2 V, while HZS2C2TD-E is rated 2.4 V to 2.6 V. Substituting them would shift the regulated voltage by ±200 mV, potentially violating downstream IC input thresholds. Always verify VZ grade suffixes before cross-referencing within the HZS2 family.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for HZS2C2TD-E?
The datasheet does not specify RθJA for HZS2C2TD-E. However, its 400 mW power rating and MHD package geometry imply a typical RθJA of ~300°C/W on standard FR-4 with minimal copper area. For thermal design, use the absolute maximum junction temperature of 200°C and ambient derating curves shown in Figure 3 of REJ03G0184-0500.
