Product details
Overview
HZS5A1TD-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in low-power stabilized power supplies. It delivers a nominal zener voltage of 4.8–5.0 V at 5 mA test current, with dynamic resistance ≤100 Ω, maximum power dissipation of 400 mW, and operates across −55°C to +175°C storage temperature range. It is used in voltage reference circuits for sensor signal conditioning and microcontroller supply rail stabilization.
For engineers reviewing the HZS5A1TD-E datasheet, HZS5A1TD-E pinout, HZS5A1TD-E application, or HZS5A1TD-E equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specifications, package dimensions, thermal derating behavior, zener voltage tolerance grade (B3), and direct alternatives suitable for industrial-grade voltage reference and overvoltage protection designs.
Technical Context
The HZS5A1TD-E belongs to the HZS Series, a family of low-leakage, low-impedance Zener diodes optimized for stable DC voltage regulation in space-constrained PCB layouts. Its zener voltage is specified at 5 mA (IZ), with reverse current limited to ≤5 µA at VR = 0.5 V, ensuring minimal standby power loss.
It features a temperature coefficient of approximately −0.04 %/°C near 5 V, enabling predictable drift compensation in ambient-temperature-varying applications. The device uses a silicon planar construction with glass-passivated junction, supporting high reliability and consistent breakdown characteristics under repetitive surge conditions.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4733A (ON Semiconductor) | 5.1 V nominal, ±5% tolerance (±0.255 V), 1000 mW Pd, rd ≈ 7 Ω - tighter VZ but looser grading and higher power envelope | Used in general-purpose power supplies; lacks B3-grade binning and −55°C low-temp qualification | Select when higher power margin is needed and ±5% VZ tolerance is acceptable; not recommended for calibrated sensor references |
| BZX55-C5V1 (Vishay) | 5.1 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 500 mW Pd, rd ≈ 60 Ω - similar thermal profile but no 175°C storage rating | Common in consumer electronics; JEDEC DO-35 package differs mechanically from MHD's 5 mm pitch | Choose for cost-sensitive volume production where automated insertion compatibility is secondary to unit price |
Compared with 1N4733A and BZX55-C5V1, the HZS5A1TD-E offers tighter B3-grade voltage tolerance (±0.2 V), guaranteed −55°C storage capability, and MHD packaging optimized for high-throughput assembly - making it preferable for industrial instrumentation requiring long-term calibration stability and manufacturing scalability.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS5A1TD-E?
The HZS5A1TD-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 4.8 V to 5.0 V when tested at IZ = 5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This B3-grade tolerance (±0.2 V) is tighter than standard ±5% Zeners and is confirmed in Renesas' REJ03G0184-0500 datasheet, Page 3, under "HZS5" type listing. The HZS5A1TD-E achieves this specification through post-trim screening within the HZS5 family.
Does HZS5A1TD-E support operation at elevated ambient temperatures?
Yes, the HZS5A1TD-E is rated for storage from −55°C to +175°C and has a maximum junction temperature of 200°C. Its power dissipation derates linearly above 25°C ambient, maintaining 400 mW up to ~70°C with adequate PCB copper area. The device's silicon planar construction and glass-passivated junction ensure stable performance in industrial control cabinets and under-hood automotive modules where ambient exceeds 85°C.
Is HZS5A1TD-E compatible with high-speed automatic insertion equipment?
Yes, the HZS5A1TD-E uses the MHD package with standardized 5 mm lead pitch and 2.0 mm body diameter, explicitly designed for compatibility with high-speed axial-component insertion machines. Renesas confirms suitability for "5mm-pitch high speed automatic insertion" in the Ordering Information section of the REJ03G0184-0500 datasheet, Page 1. Lead coplanarity and mechanical tolerances meet IPC-J-STD-020 requirements for wave soldering.
What is the dynamic resistance of HZS5A1TD-E and why does it matter?
The HZS5A1TD-E has a maximum dynamic resistance (rd) of 100 Ω at IZ = 5 mA. This parameter quantifies how much the zener voltage changes per unit change in current - a lower rd means better regulation under varying load conditions. For example, a 1 mA load step causes only ~100 mV shift in output, critical for precision references in ADC biasing and sensor excitation circuits where HZS5A1TD-E is commonly deployed.
Can HZS5A1TD-E be used as a replacement for generic 5.1 V Zener diodes like 1N4733A?
No - while both regulate near 5 V, the HZS5A1TD-E is a 4.8–5.0 V device with B3-grade tolerance (±0.2 V), whereas 1N4733A is 5.1 V ±5% (±0.255 V). Their thermal coefficients also differ: HZS5A1TD-E exhibits −0.04 %/°C near 5 V, while 1N4733A is typically +0.05 %/°C. Substituting HZS5A1TD-E for 1N4733A may cause under-regulation in circuits relying on 5.1 V headroom; always verify reference voltage margins before interchange.
