Product details
Overview
HZS6.2NB2TA-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in low-power stabilized power supplies, with a nominal zener voltage of 6.2 V (min 5.99 V, max 6.24 V), dynamic resistance of 3.0 Ω at 5 mA, maximum power dissipation of 400 mW, and junction temperature rating up to 200°C. It serves as a reference or clamp element in voltage monitoring, overvoltage protection, and biasing circuits for analog ICs and microcontrollers.
For engineers reviewing the HZS6.2NB2TA-E datasheet, HZS6.2NB2TA-E pinout, HZS6.2NB2TA-E application, or HZS6.2NB2TA-E equivalent, this device is selected for stable low-current regulation where tight voltage tolerance (±2.4% at 6.2 V), low dynamic impedance, and high thermal robustness are required in industrial and consumer-grade power management subsystems.
Technical Context
The HZS6.2NB2TA-E operates as a two-terminal voltage reference diode, conducting in reverse breakdown with controlled zener characteristics. Its planar construction ensures consistent parameter distribution across production lots, and its specified test condition (IZ = 5 mA, pulse width = 40 ms) reflects typical DC-biased operation in linear regulator feedback paths or comparator reference nodes.
It exhibits a negative zener voltage temperature coefficient near 6.2 V - approximately –0.02 %/°C per Figure 2 - enabling predictable drift behavior in ambient-temperature-varying environments. The device is rated for storage between –55°C and +175°C and requires no external biasing circuitry beyond series current limiting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 5.99 V to 6.24 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for 6.2 V nominal regulation. |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 3.0 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load current changes. |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW max at Ta = 25°C - sets upper limit for continuous DC power handling on standard PCB. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 200°C max - supports reliable operation in high-ambient industrial enclosures without forced cooling. |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 5 μA max at VR = 4.0 V - guarantees low leakage below breakdown, critical for battery-powered standby circuits. |
| Package Type | MHD (JEITA GRZZ0002ZC-A) - 5 mm-pitch axial leaded package optimized for high-speed automatic insertion. |
Pinout & Package
MHD package: axial-leaded, cylindrical glass-body diode with cathode band marking; leads spaced 5 mm apart, body diameter 2.0 mm, length 26.0 mm, mass ~0.084 g.
| 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 ground or lower-potential rail; completes current path during regulation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low dynamic impedance | 3.0 Ω enables <15 mV output shift per 5 mA load change - improves regulation accuracy in feedback loops. |
| Wide operating temperature range | –55°C to +175°C storage, 200°C junction rating - supports deployment in automotive engine bays and industrial motor drives. |
| Tight zener voltage tolerance | Grade B2: ±2.4% at 6.2 V - reduces need for post-regulation trimming in cost-sensitive power supply designs. |
| Low leakage current | ≤5 μA at 4.0 V reverse bias - minimizes quiescent current draw in always-on monitoring circuits. |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning | Microcontroller Reset Circuit |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX55C6V2 (ON Semiconductor) | Same 6.2 V nominal, 500 mW Pd, 10 Ω rd, DO-35 package | Higher power rating but higher dynamic impedance - less precise regulation at low currents | Prefer when higher surge energy handling is needed and tighter regulation is secondary |
| MMSZ5232B (Diodes Inc.) | 6.2 V nominal, SOD-123 surface-mount, 500 mW, 7 Ω rd | Surface-mount footprint - incompatible with through-hole assembly; unsuitable for axial-leaded layouts | Choose only if board redesign to SMT is feasible and space constraints prohibit axial devices |
Compared with BZX55C6V2 and MMSZ5232B, the HZS6.2NB2TA-E offers superior regulation precision (3.0 Ω vs. ≥7 Ω rd) in an industry-standard axial package, making it optimal for legacy through-hole designs requiring high stability at 5 mA bias without layout modification.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS6.2NB2TA-E at 5 mA test current?
The HZS6.2NB2TA-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 5.99 V to 6.24 V when tested at IZ = 5 mA, corresponding to Grade B2 tolerance per the Renesas REJ03G0185-0300 datasheet. This 2.4% tolerance band ensures predictable clamping behavior in feedback networks without requiring binning or calibration. The HZS6.2NB2TA-E maintains this specification across its qualified operating temperature range.
Does HZS6.2NB2TA-E support surface-mount assembly?
No, the HZS6.2NB2TA-E uses the MHD axial-leaded package (JEITA GRZZ0002ZC-A) with 5 mm lead pitch and is designed exclusively for through-hole mounting. It is not compatible with reflow or wave soldering processes used for surface-mount components. For SMT alternatives, consider MMSZ5232B or similar SOD-123 devices - but note these are not pin-compatible replacements for HZS6.2NB2TA-E.
What is the maximum allowable continuous power dissipation for HZS6.2NB2TA-E at 70°C ambient?
Per Figure 3 in the Renesas datasheet, the HZS6.2NB2TA-E's derated power dissipation at Ta = 70°C is approximately 320 mW on a standard 100 × 180 × 1.6 mm paper-phenol PCB. This value is derived from the 400 mW rating at 25°C and linear derating slope of 4.0 mW/°C above 25°C. Exceeding this limit risks junction temperature exceeding 200°C and permanent degradation of the HZS6.2NB2TA-E.
Is HZS6.2NB2TA-E suitable for automotive under-hood applications?
The HZS6.2NB2TA-E is rated for junction temperatures up to 200°C and storage from –55°C to +175°C, meeting thermal requirements for many under-hood locations. However, Renesas classifies it as "Standard" grade per Quality Grade Notice, meaning it is not qualified for automotive safety-critical systems (e.g., engine control, braking). It may be used in non-safety auxiliary circuits like cabin sensors or infotainment power rails - subject to customer qualification per AEC-Q101.
How does the dynamic resistance of HZS6.2NB2TA-E affect regulation accuracy in a 1 mA bias circuit?
Although the HZS6.2NB2TA-E's dynamic resistance is specified at 5 mA (3.0 Ω max), its rd increases significantly at lower currents - typically >10 Ω at 1 mA. This results in greater output voltage sensitivity to current variations, reducing regulation accuracy. For stable 1 mA operation, the HZS6.2NB2TA-E remains functional but delivers ±30–50 mV regulation error versus ±15 mV at 5 mA. Designers should verify loop stability using actual rd vs. IZ curves from Figure 1.
