Product details
Overview
HZS36-2TD-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in stabilized power supplies, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 36.4–38.0 V at 2 mA test current, 400 mW maximum power dissipation, and low dynamic resistance of 140 Ω - deployed in industrial control power rails and analog sensor biasing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the HZS36-2TD-E datasheet, HZS36-2TD-E pinout, HZS36-2TD-E application, or HZS36-2TD-E equivalent, this device serves as a discrete voltage reference with tight VZ tolerance, temperature-stable operation up to +200°C junction temperature, and compatibility with 5 mm-pitch automated insertion processes.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with DC-tested characteristics, delivering stable reference voltage under fixed current conditions. Its planar construction ensures reproducible breakdown behavior and low leakage current (≤1 µA at VR = 0.5 V).
The device exhibits a negative zener voltage temperature coefficient (−0.06 to −0.08 %/°C) typical for 36 V-class Zeners, enabling predictable drift compensation in temperature-sensitive designs. Thermal derating follows a linear curve down to zero power at +125°C ambient per Figure 3.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 36.4–38.0 V at IZ = 2 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection and reference generation. |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW max at Ta = 25°C - sets thermal design margin for PCB copper area and ambient cooling requirements. |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 140 Ω max at IZ = 2 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity in shunt regulator topologies. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤1 µA at VR = 0.5 V - minimizes standby current loss in battery-backed or low-power monitoring circuits. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | −55 to +200°C - supports operation in high-temperature industrial environments without derating penalties. |
| Package Type | MHD (Mini-High-Density) - surface-mount compatible leadframe package with 5 mm pitch suitability for automated assembly. |
Pinout & Package
MHD package: axial-leaded, epoxy-molded, cathode band marked on body; dimensions L = 26.0 mm, φD = 2.0 mm, E = 2.4 mm; mass ≈ 0.084 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Breakdown Anode Connection | Connected to regulated positive rail; reverse-biased terminal where Zener conduction occurs. |
| 2 (Anode) | Reference Ground Node | Tied to circuit common; establishes reference potential for voltage stabilization relative to cathode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Zener Impedance | 140 Ω max enables tight regulation under varying load currents in shunt reference applications. |
| Wide VZ Range Coverage | 36.4–38.0 V span supports compliance with legacy 36 V system rails and industrial 24/48 V DC distribution standards. |
| High Junction Temperature Rating | +200°C Tj allows deployment in engine control units, motor drives, and enclosed power modules without thermal throttling. |
| Automated Insertion Compatibility | 5 mm pitch design aligns with standard high-speed pick-and-place equipment for cost-effective SMT-style through-hole assembly. |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Regulation | Overvoltage Protection Circuit |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4749A | VZ = 24 V (nom), Pd = 1 W, DO-41 package - higher power but lower voltage rating. | Not suitable for 36 V systems; requires redesign of series resistor and thermal layout. | Select only if upgrading to higher-power 24 V reference with board-level heatsinking capability. |
| BZX84-C36 | VZ = 36 V (nom), Pd = 300 mW, SOT-23 package - smaller size but 25% lower power rating. | Limited to low-current references (<5 mA); unsuitable for >100 mA shunt regulation. | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where 300 mW suffices and surface-mount assembly is mandatory. |
Compared with 1N4749A and BZX84-C36, the HZS36-2TD-E uniquely balances 36 V-class regulation, 400 mW dissipation, and through-hole MHD packaging - making it optimal for industrial power supplies requiring mechanical robustness and thermal headroom without SMT conversion.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range specified for HZS36-2TD-E?
The HZS36-2TD-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 36.4 V to 38.0 V when tested at IZ = 2 mA and Ta = 25°C, corresponding to the "−2" grade in the HZS36 family per Renesas datasheet REJ03G0184-0500 Rev.5.00. This tolerance band ensures consistent performance in precision regulation circuits without post-selection calibration.
Does HZS36-2TD-E support automatic insertion equipment?
Yes, the HZS36-2TD-E is explicitly designed for 5 mm-pitch high-speed automatic insertion per its datasheet, leveraging the standardized MHD package geometry and lead spacing. Its axial-leaded form factor and 26 mm body length comply with industry-standard feeder tape and placement nozzle specifications used in industrial electronics manufacturing lines.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for HZS36-2TD-E?
The absolute maximum junction temperature for HZS36-2TD-E is +200°C, as stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Renesas datasheet. This rating permits operation in high-temperature environments such as motor drive cabinets or under-hood automotive modules, provided PCB thermal design maintains Tj ≤ 200°C under worst-case power dissipation.
How does the dynamic resistance of HZS36-2TD-E affect regulation accuracy?
The HZS36-2TD-E specifies a maximum dynamic resistance of 140 Ω at IZ = 2 mA, directly impacting load regulation: a 10 mA change in shunt current causes up to 1.4 V variation in output voltage. Designers must pair it with sufficient series resistance and low-noise biasing to maintain stability in sensitive analog references or feedback networks.
Is HZS36-2TD-E RoHS compliant?
Yes, HZS36-2TD-E complies with the EU RoHS Directive as confirmed by Renesas Electronics' environmental compliance documentation. The device contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), or polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) above threshold limits, and is suitable for use in environmentally regulated industrial and consumer products.
