Product details
Overview
HZS7A1J-E from ROHM Semiconductor is a silicon epitaxial planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in stabilized power supplies, with a nominal zener voltage of 6.3–6.6 V at 5 mA, dynamic resistance of 15 Ω max, reverse current ≤1 µA at 3.5 V, and 400 mW power dissipation - used in low-noise reference circuits and industrial sensor biasing.
For engineers reviewing the HZS7A1J-E datasheet, HZS7A1J-E pinout, HZS7A1J-E application, or HZS7A1J-E equivalent, key selection criteria include verified zener voltage tolerance (±5% grade A1), low-temperature coefficient (−0.05%/°C typical near 6.5 V), DC-tested stability, and compatibility with 5 mm-pitch automated insertion.
Technical Context
This discrete Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with tightly controlled VZ dispersion across production lots, leveraging epitaxial planar construction to minimize leakage and ensure repeatable regulation under DC bias. Its low dynamic impedance (15 Ω max) supports stable output in low-current reference paths.
The device exhibits a negative temperature coefficient near 6.5 V (−0.05%/°C), enabling predictable drift compensation in analog front-ends. Absolute maximum ratings include 200°C junction temperature and −55°C to +175°C storage range - suitable for extended industrial environments.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 6.3–6.6 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines regulated output level in shunt reference designs |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | ≤15 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤1 µA at VR = 3.5 V - guarantees low standby power loss in battery-backed circuits |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW at Ta = 25°C - sets thermal derating limit for PCB layout and heatsinking |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 200°C max - enables operation in high-ambient industrial enclosures without forced cooling |
| Temperature Coefficient | −0.05%/°C typical at ~6.5 V - allows predictable VZ drift modeling over temperature |

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS7A1J-E?
The HZS7A1J-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 6.3 V to 6.6 V when tested at IZ = 5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This corresponds to Grade A1 tolerance per the HZS Series datasheet (ADE-208-120A(Z) Rev 1), and the device is DC-tested to ensure compliance. The HZS7A1J-E does not exhibit significant hysteresis or AC-dependent variation.
Is HZS7A1J-E suitable for surface-mount assembly?
No, the HZS7A1J-E uses a DO-35 glass axial package with radial leads intended for through-hole mounting and 5 mm-pitch automatic insertion. It is not compatible with reflow soldering or pick-and-place SMT processes. For surface-mount alternatives, consider the MMBZ5231B or similar SOD-123 devices - but note that HZS7A1J-E itself requires wave or selective soldering.
What is the maximum reverse current specification for HZS7A1J-E?
The HZS7A1J-E specifies a maximum reverse current (IR) of 1 µA at VR = 3.5 V and Ta = 25°C. This low leakage supports energy-efficient designs, especially in battery-powered or always-on monitoring circuits. The value is measured under DC conditions and remains stable across its rated storage temperature range.
Does HZS7A1J-E have a specified temperature coefficient?
Yes, the HZS7A1J-E exhibits a typical temperature coefficient of −0.05%/°C near its nominal 6.5 V zener voltage, as shown in Figure 2 of the HZS Series datasheet. This negative coefficient is characteristic of Zener diodes in the 6–7 V range and enables predictable drift modeling in precision analog circuits using the HZS7A1J-E.
Can HZS7A1J-E replace BZX55C6V2 in existing designs?
The HZS7A1J-E shares the DO-35 package and similar 6.2–6.6 V regulation range with BZX55C6V2, but it is not a direct drop-in replacement due to differences in dynamic resistance (15 Ω vs. 10 Ω) and power rating (400 mW vs. 500 mW). Designers must verify thermal margin and impedance sensitivity before substituting HZS7A1J-E in circuits originally qualified with BZX55C6V2.
