Product details
Overview
HZS39NB3TA-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in stabilized power supplies, with a nominal zener voltage of 36.63–38.52 V at 5 mA test current, 400 mW power dissipation, and dynamic resistance of 30 Ω, used in industrial instrumentation and DC-DC feedback networks.
For engineers reviewing the HZS39NB3TA-E datasheet, HZS39NB3TA-E pinout, HZS39NB3TA-E application, or HZS39NB3TA-E equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, package mapping to MHD (JEITA GRZZ0002ZC-A), thermal derating behavior, and direct alternative options for voltage reference design in cost-sensitive, high-reliability linear regulator circuits.
Technical Context
The HZS39NB3TA-E operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage reference, maintaining stable output voltage across varying load currents via controlled reverse-biased avalanche breakdown. Its low leakage (<0.2 μA at VR = 23 V) and tight zener voltage tolerance (B3 grade: ±2.7% typical) support accurate feedback in unregulated input environments.
Thermal stability is defined by a zener voltage temperature coefficient of +0.06%/°C (≈+22 mV/°C) near 39 V, and power dissipation derates linearly above 25°C ambient-fully rated at 400 mW up to 70°C on a standard 100 × 180 × 1.6 mm phenolic PCB per Fig.3.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 36.63–38.52 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines regulated output level for feedback loop setpoint accuracy |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW at Ta = 25°C - sets maximum continuous power handling before thermal shutdown risk |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 30 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.2 μA at VR = 23 V - ensures minimal quiescent current draw in standby mode |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 200°C maximum - enables operation in high-ambient industrial enclosures with adequate heatsinking |
| Package Type | MHD (JEITA GRZZ0002ZC-A) - 5 mm pitch, axial-leaded, 2.0 mm diameter body for automated insertion |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4763A (ON Semiconductor) | Zener voltage 39 V ±5%, Pd = 1 W, DO-41 package, rd = 35 Ω | Higher power rating suits higher-current clamping; larger DO-41 footprint requires layout change | Select when >400 mW surge energy absorption is required and board space permits larger package |
| BZX85C39 (Nexperia) | Zener voltage 39 V ±5%, Pd = 1.3 W, DO-41, rd = 40 Ω, IR = 5 μA @ 31.2 V | Higher leakage and looser tolerance reduce precision in low-power feedback loops | Prefer for cost-driven overvoltage clamp where ±5% regulation is acceptable and thermal margin is ample |
Compared with HZS39NB3TA-E, the 1N4763A offers higher power headroom but requires PCB rework due to DO-41 size, while BZX85C39 trades tighter thermal coefficient and lower leakage for relaxed tolerance and higher leakage-making HZS39NB3TA-E optimal for precision 39 V references in space-constrained industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range specified for HZS39NB3TA-E?
The HZS39NB3TA-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 36.63 V to 38.52 V at a test current of 5 mA, corresponding to the B3 grade tolerance within the HZS-N Series. This range is confirmed in the "Electrical Characteristics" table on page 4 of Renesas document REJ03G0185-0300 Rev.3.00, and applies specifically to the HZS39NB3TA-E variant-not the broader HZS39N family.
Does HZS39NB3TA-E support automatic insertion in high-speed manufacturing?
Yes, HZS39NB3TA-E is explicitly qualified for 5 mm-pitch high-speed automatic insertion, as stated in the "Features" section on page 1 of its datasheet. Its MHD package (JEITA GRZZ0002ZC-A) has standardized axial lead spacing and mechanical dimensions compatible with industry-standard pick-and-place feeders and insertion equipment.
What is the maximum allowable reverse voltage before breakdown for HZS39NB3TA-E?
HZS39NB3TA-E does not specify a discrete "reverse breakdown threshold" separate from its zener voltage. It enters controlled zener conduction at approximately 36.63 V under 5 mA test conditions. Operation below 36.63 V yields only leakage current ≤0.2 μA at 23 V, per the Electrical Characteristics table. Sustained reverse voltage above 38.52 V risks exceeding power limits unless current is strictly limited.
How does the temperature coefficient affect HZS39NB3TA-E performance in outdoor industrial gear?
HZS39NB3TA-E exhibits a positive zener voltage temperature coefficient of +0.06%/°C (≈+22 mV/°C at 39 V), meaning its regulated voltage increases ~22 mV per °C rise in junction temperature. In outdoor enclosures reaching 85°C ambient, this results in ~1.3 V upward shift-acceptable for non-critical clamping but requiring compensation in precision reference designs.
Is HZS39NB3TA-E compliant with RoHS and lead-free assembly requirements?
Yes, HZS39NB3TA-E meets EU RoHS Directive requirements, as confirmed by Renesas' environmental compliance statements in document REJ03G0185-0300 and their public policy (Note 10, page 1). The device uses lead-free terminations and is compatible with standard Pb-free reflow profiles, though it is not a surface-mount part and is intended for through-hole or axial insertion.
