Product details
Overview
HZS36-2LTD-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for low-noise voltage reference and stabilization in precision analog circuits, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 35.3–36.8 V, 400 mW power dissipation, and dynamic resistance of 33 Ω at 0.5 mA test current. It is used in high-stability power supplies, instrumentation references, and sensor excitation circuits where low noise and tight voltage tolerance are critical.
For engineers reviewing the HZS36-2LTD-E datasheet, HZS36-2LTD-E pinout, HZS36-2LTD-E application, or HZS36-2LTD-E equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy (±1.5 V), temperature coefficient (−0.04 %/°C typical), low leakage (<1 μA at VR = 28.2 V), and compatibility with 5 mm-pitch automated insertion.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator, maintaining stable output voltage across varying load currents via controlled reverse-bias breakdown. Its planar junction construction ensures reproducible zener characteristics and low flicker noise-approximately 1/3 to 1/10 that of the legacy HZ series.
Designed for DC-regulated applications, it exhibits a negative temperature coefficient (−0.04 %/°C) near 36 V, enabling predictable drift compensation in reference designs. The MHD package supports thermal dissipation up to 400 mW at 25°C ambient, derating linearly above 50°C per Figure 3 in the datasheet.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 35.3–36.8 V at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines precise regulation point for mid-range high-voltage references |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 33 Ω max at IZ = 0.5 mA - ensures minimal output impedance and high line/load regulation stability |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW - enables use in compact PCB layouts without forced cooling in ambient ≤50°C |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | <1 μA at VR = 28.2 V - reduces error current in high-impedance reference nodes |
| Zener Temp. Coefficient (γZ) | −0.04 %/°C typical - allows predictable drift modeling for temperature-compensated designs |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 200°C maximum - supports operation in thermally demanding industrial environments |
| Package | MHD (JEITA GRZZ0002ZC-A) - standardized 2-pin axial lead, 5 mm pitch compatible with high-speed auto-insertion |
Pinout & Package
The HZS36-2LTD-E is housed in the MHD axial-leaded package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZC-A), with 2.0 mm body diameter, 26 mm lead length, and 0.4 mm lead diameter. Cathode identified by black band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Banded End) | Cathode | Connected to regulated output node; reverse-biased terminal where zener breakdown occurs |
| 2 (Non-banded End) | Anode | Connected to circuit ground or lower potential; completes bias path for stable reference operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise zener operation | Noise level ~1/3–1/10 that of HZ-series diodes - critical for audio, measurement, and precision ADC reference circuits |
| Stable voltage regulation | ±1.5 V tolerance over full operating range - enables accurate calibration without post-trim in production |
| High power density | 400 mW in MHD package - supports higher current references than standard 250 mW Zeners without footprint increase |
| Automated assembly compatibility | 5 mm pitch axial leads - directly compatible with high-throughput pick-and-place and wave soldering equipment |
| Wide operating temperature | −55°C to +175°C storage, 200°C junction - suitable for under-hood automotive and industrial control modules |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MMBZ5267BLT1G | Zener voltage 36 V ±5%, Pd = 350 mW, rd = 55 Ω - higher impedance and looser tolerance | Suitable for general-purpose regulation but not low-noise instrumentation | Prefer HZS36-2LTD-E when noise < 10 nV/√Hz or tempco < ±0.05 %/°C is required |
| Vishay BZX84-C36 | Zener voltage 36 V ±5%, Pd = 300 mW, rd = 70 Ω - higher impedance and wider voltage spread | Targeted at cost-sensitive consumer power supplies, not precision analog | Choose HZS36-2LTD-E for applications demanding ≤1 μA leakage and 33 Ω rd at 0.5 mA |
Compared with MMBZ5267BLT1G and BZX84-C36, the HZS36-2LTD-E delivers superior voltage accuracy (±1.5 V vs. ±1.8 V), lower dynamic resistance (33 Ω vs. ≥55 Ω), and verified low-noise performance-making it the preferred choice for metrology-grade references and sensor signal chains.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS36-2LTD-E?
The HZS36-2LTD-E has a specified zener voltage range of 35.3 V to 36.8 V when tested at IZ = 0.5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This 1.5 V span reflects factory binning for tighter regulation than generic 36 V Zeners, supporting high-accuracy reference design without external trimming.
Does HZS36-2LTD-E support automated PCB assembly?
Yes, the HZS36-2LTD-E uses the MHD axial package with 5 mm lead pitch, explicitly qualified for high-speed automatic insertion per the datasheet. Its standardized dimensions (2.0 mm body diameter, 26 mm lead length) ensure compatibility with industry-standard feeders and placement nozzles.
How does the noise performance of HZS36-2LTD-E compare to standard Zener diodes?
The HZS36-2LTD-E achieves approximately 1/3 to 1/10 the noise level of the legacy HZ series, as confirmed in Renesas' characterization data. This low flicker noise is intrinsic to its silicon planar process and makes it suitable for audio preamps, precision DAC references, and low-level sensor interfaces.
What is the maximum allowable reverse current before breakdown in HZS36-2LTD-E?
The HZS36-2LTD-E specifies reverse leakage current IR ≤ 1 μA at VR = 28.2 V (80% of nominal VZ). This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference divider networks and preserves accuracy in battery-powered instrumentation.
Can HZS36-2LTD-E be used in automotive under-hood applications?
Yes - the HZS36-2LTD-E has a rated junction temperature of 200°C and storage range of −55°C to +175°C. When mounted on appropriate copper area and operated within its 400 mW derated power envelope, it meets thermal requirements for non-safety-critical engine control module references.
