Product details
Overview
HZS7A1TA-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in low-power stabilized power supplies, featuring a nominal zener voltage of 7.5 V (min 7.5 V, max 7.9 V), 400 mW maximum power dissipation, and dynamic resistance of 15 Ω at 5 mA test current - deployed in industrial control power rails and sensor biasing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the HZS7A1TA-E datasheet, HZS7A1TA-E pinout, HZS7A1TA-E application, or HZS7A1TA-E equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specifications, package geometry, thermal derating behavior, cathode/anode terminal roles, and direct alternative options for voltage reference design and overvoltage protection circuits.
Technical Context
The HZS7A1TA-E operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device with sharp reverse breakdown characteristics, optimized for DC stabilization under low-current conditions (IZ = 5 mA). Its zener voltage exhibits a temperature coefficient of −0.04 %/°C (−4 mV/°C) near 7.5 V, minimizing drift across ambient temperatures from −55°C to +175°C.
Constructed using silicon planar process technology, it achieves low leakage (<1 µA at VR = 5 V), low dynamic impedance (15 Ω), and stable junction temperature up to 200°C - enabling reliable operation in compact PCB layouts with minimal thermal margin requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 7.5 V min to 7.9 V max at IZ = 5 mA - defines tight regulation window for 7.5 V reference designs. |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW maximum at Ta = 25°C - sets upper limit for continuous DC power handling without heatsinking. |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 15 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load current changes. |
| Reverse Leakage Current (IR) | ≤1 µA at VR = 5 V - guarantees low standby power loss in always-on bias networks. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 200°C maximum - supports high-temperature environments such as motor drive control boards. |
| Storage Temperature | −55°C to +175°C - enables use in extended industrial and automotive under-hood applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: MHD (Mini-High-Density) plastic molded case, 2-pin axial leaded, 5 mm pitch, 2.0 mm diameter body, 26 mm lead length - compatible with high-speed automatic insertion equipment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | High-side reference node | Connected to regulated positive rail; polarity mark (lake blue band) identifies this terminal. |
| 2 (Anode) | Ground/reference return | Tied to circuit common; reverse-biased operation requires anode at lower potential than cathode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low zener impedance | 15 Ω at 5 mA - maintains stable reference voltage despite small load transients. |
| Wide zener voltage range coverage | Part of HZS Series spanning 1.6 V–38 V - allows single-source selection across diverse supply rails. |
| High-temperature junction rating | 200°C max Tj - eliminates need for external thermal derating in enclosed enclosures. |
| Automated assembly compatibility | 5 mm pitch, standardized MHD package - supports pick-and-place and wave soldering without rework. |
| Low leakage performance | <1 µA at 5 V reverse bias - critical for battery-powered sensor nodes requiring ultra-low quiescent current. |
Applications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4733A (ON Semiconductor) | Zener voltage 5.1 V ±5%, Pd = 1 W, DO-41 package - higher power but different VZ and form factor. | Not suitable for 7.5 V reference; requires redesign of resistor divider and layout. | Select only if 5.1 V reference and higher power margin are required; not a drop-in replacement. |
| BZX55C7V5 (Vishay) | Zener voltage 7.5 V ±5%, Pd = 500 mW, DO-35 package - same VZ grade but larger footprint and higher power rating. | Compatible in function but requires pad revision due to DO-35 vs. MHD lead spacing and body size. | Preferred where higher surge tolerance is needed; verify thermal relief and board space constraints. |
Compared with HZS7A1TA-E, the 1N4733A offers higher power but mismatched voltage, while BZX55C7V5 matches VZ and improves surge capability at the cost of larger PCB area and non-automated-insertion packaging.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for HZS7A1TA-E?
The HZS7A1TA-E has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 7.5 V minimum to 7.9 V maximum when tested at IZ = 5 mA and Ta = 25°C. This 0.4 V tolerance reflects Grade C3 specification within the HZS7 family and ensures predictable regulation in precision reference circuits where ±2.7% initial accuracy is required.
Does HZS7A1TA-E support automated PCB assembly?
Yes, HZS7A1TA-E uses the MHD package with 5 mm lead pitch and standardized axial geometry, explicitly qualified for high-speed automatic insertion per the datasheet. Its 2.0 mm body diameter and 26 mm lead length comply with GRZZ0002ZC-A mechanical standards, enabling compatibility with standard pick-and-place feeders and wave soldering profiles.
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for HZS7A1TA-E?
The HZS7A1TA-E is rated for a maximum junction temperature (Tj) of 200°C, significantly exceeding typical commercial-grade diodes. This allows uninterrupted operation in high-ambient environments such as motor drive inverters or enclosed industrial controllers without forced cooling, provided power dissipation remains within derated limits per Figure 3 in REJ03G0184-0500.
How does the temperature coefficient affect HZS7A1TA-E performance?
HZS7A1TA-E exhibits a zener voltage temperature coefficient (γZ) of −0.04 %/°C (≈ −4 mV/°C) near its 7.5 V operating point. This negative drift counterbalances positive thermal effects in associated circuitry, making it especially valuable in mixed-signal systems where reference stability over −40°C to +125°C must stay within ±0.5% total error budget.
Can HZS7A1TA-E be used as a transient voltage suppressor?
No - HZS7A1TA-E is optimized for steady-state DC voltage regulation, not transient suppression. With only 400 mW power dissipation and no specified peak pulse rating, it lacks the energy-handling capability of dedicated TVS diodes. For surge protection, pair HZS7A1TA-E with a series current-limiting resistor and use a separate TVS like P6KE7.5CA for clamping fast transients.
