Product details
Overview
HZS3B2TA-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for voltage regulation and stabilization in low-power supply circuits, with a nominal zener voltage of 3.0 V (min 2.9 V, max 3.1 V), 400 mW power dissipation, and dynamic resistance of 100 Ω at 5 mA test current. It serves as a precision reference in linear regulators, overvoltage protection, and biasing networks for industrial control and consumer electronics.
For engineers reviewing the HZS3B2TA-E datasheet, HZS3B2TA-E pinout, HZS3B2TA-E application, or HZS3B2TA-E equivalent, this device is selected for stable low-voltage reference needs where tight tolerance (±0.1 V), low leakage (<5 µA at 0.5 V), and high-temperature operation (up to +200°C junction) are critical in compact through-hole designs.
Technical Context
The HZS3B2TA-E employs a silicon planar junction structure optimized for low zener impedance and minimal temperature drift. Its zener voltage is specified at 5 mA test current, with reverse current limited to 5 µA maximum at VR = 0.5 V, ensuring predictable turn-on behavior in feedback loops.
Designed for 5 mm-pitch automatic insertion, it uses a standard MHD package with cathode band marking and axial lead configuration. The device operates across −55°C to +175°C storage range and supports continuous DC zener current without derating below 25°C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 2.9 V to 3.1 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines stable regulation point for 3.0 V nominal reference applications |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW - supports continuous operation in small PCB footprints without forced cooling |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 100 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - ensures low output impedance for effective ripple suppression |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤5 µA at VR = 0.5 V - guarantees minimal standby leakage in battery-backed or low-quiescent circuits |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | +200°C maximum - enables use in high-ambient environments such as motor drives or enclosed power supplies |
| Package Type | MHD (axial lead, 5 mm pitch) - compatible with legacy wave-solder and high-speed auto-insertion equipment |
Pinout & Package
Package: MHD - axial-leaded, plastic-molded diode package with cathode band marking; overall length ~26 mm, lead diameter 0.4 mm, body diameter 2.0 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Positive reference terminal under reverse bias | Connected to regulated output node; polarity must be observed to avoid forward conduction |
| 2 (Anode) | Ground or return path terminal | Biased toward lower potential; forms current path with series resistor for zener operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low zener impedance | 100 Ω max ensures stable regulation under varying load currents in feedback references |
| Wide zener voltage spectrum | 1.6 V–38 V family coverage allows direct selection of HZS3B2TA-E for 3.0 V systems without external scaling |
| High junction temperature rating | 200°C Tj enables reliable operation in thermally constrained enclosures or near heat sources |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4723TR | Zener voltage 3.3 V (±5%), 1 W power rating, DO-41 package | Higher power but looser tolerance (±5% vs ±3.3%) and larger footprint | Preferred where higher surge energy handling is required and 3.3 V is acceptable |

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS3B2TA-E?
The HZS3B2TA-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 2.9 V to 3.1 V when tested at 5 mA zener current and 25°C ambient temperature. This ±0.1 V tolerance reflects its B2 grade within the HZS3 family and ensures consistent regulation in precision reference circuits without external trimming.
Does HZS3B2TA-E support high-temperature operation?
Yes, HZS3B2TA-E is rated for a maximum junction temperature of +200°C and storage temperature from −55°C to +175°C. This enables reliable deployment in thermally demanding applications such as motor drive control boards or enclosed power converters where ambient temperatures exceed 85°C.
What package type does HZS3B2TA-E use, and is it RoHS compliant?
HZS3B2TA-E uses the MHD axial-leaded package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZC-A), with 5 mm lead pitch and lake-blue cathode band marking. Per Renesas documentation and EU RoHS Directive compliance statements, the device meets RoHS requirements with lead-free terminations and halogen-free molding compound.
How does the dynamic resistance of HZS3B2TA-E affect its regulation performance?
HZS3B2TA-E specifies dynamic resistance ≤100 Ω at 5 mA, meaning its output voltage varies less than 0.5 V per 5 mA load change. This low rd ensures minimal output deviation under dynamic load conditions-critical for maintaining accuracy in ADC reference buffers and op-amp bias networks.
Can HZS3B2TA-E replace other HZS-series diodes like HZS3B1 or HZS3B3?
No-HZS3B2TA-E is not interchangeable with HZS3B1 (2.8–3.0 V) or HZS3B3 (3.0–3.2 V) due to distinct zener voltage bands. Each grade targets specific regulation windows; substituting across grades risks out-of-spec output voltage. Always verify the exact grade suffix (B2) matches design requirements for 2.9–3.1 V operation.
