Product details
Overview
HZS9C1LTA-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for low-noise voltage regulation in precision analog and stabilized power supply circuits, with a nominal zener voltage of 8.9–9.3 V, dynamic resistance of 60 Ω at 6.0 mA, maximum power dissipation of 400 mW, and junction temperature rating up to 200°C - deployed in industrial instrumentation and sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the HZS9C1LTA-E datasheet, HZS9C1LTA-E pinout, HZS9C1LTA-E application, or HZS9C1LTA-E equivalent, this part serves as a low-noise, low-impedance voltage reference where thermal stability, low leakage (<1 μA at VR = 2.0 V), and consistent zener impedance across production lots are critical selection criteria.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in a planar-diffused silicon junction. Its zener voltage exhibits a positive temperature coefficient near 0 mV/°C at ~9 V (per Fig.2), minimizing drift over temperature in biasing and reference applications.
Designed for DC-regulated operation, it delivers stable regulation under constant-current bias (IZ = 6.0 mA), with low noise performance achieved via optimized doping profile and junction geometry - distinguishing it from standard HZ-series diodes by offering 1/3–1/10 lower noise level.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.9–9.3 V at IZ = 0.5 mA - defines precise DC reference point for feedback loops and analog circuit biasing. |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 60 Ω max at IZ = 6.0 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load current transients. |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 400 mW max at Ta = 25°C - supports compact PCB layouts without forced cooling in industrial ambient conditions. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤1 μA at VR = 2.0 V - reduces error current in high-impedance reference nodes and improves accuracy in low-power designs. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 200°C max - enables reliable operation in thermally demanding environments such as motor control enclosures or power converters. |
| Storage Temperature | −55 to +175°C - compatible with reflow soldering and extended industrial storage requirements. |
Pinout & Package
Package: MHD (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZC-A), axial-leaded, 5 mm pitch, glass-passivated silicon planar diode with cathode band marking. Mass: 0.084 g. Dimensions: φD = 2.0 mm, E = 2.4 mm, L = 26.0 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | High-side reference terminal | Connected to regulated output node; polarity must be observed to maintain reverse-bias operation. |
| 2 (Anode) | Low-side return terminal | Typically tied to ground or common reference plane; completes current path during zener conduction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise zener operation | 1/3–1/10 lower noise than HZ-series - directly improves SNR in precision ADC references and op-amp bias networks. |
| Stable temperature coefficient | ≈0 mV/°C near 9 V (per Fig.2) - minimizes reference drift over −40°C to +125°C operating range. |
| Low zener impedance | 60 Ω max at 6 mA - maintains tight regulation under varying load currents in feedback-controlled supplies. |
| High reliability construction | Planar diffusion + glass passivation - ensures long-term parameter stability and resistance to humidity-induced degradation. |
| Automated assembly compatibility | 5 mm pitch, axial lead form - supports high-speed insertion in industrial PCB assembly lines. |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Reference | Precision Sensor Biasing |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4739A (ON Semiconductor) | Zener voltage 9.1 V ±5%, rd = 10 Ω typical (but higher noise), Pd = 1 W, DO-41 package. | Higher power rating suits higher-current references but lacks low-noise optimization for precision analog. | Select when higher power headroom is needed and noise is secondary to cost or availability. |
| BZX55C9V1 (Vishay) | Zener voltage 9.1 V ±5%, rd = 15 Ω typical, Pd = 500 mW, DO-35 package, no published noise spec. | Smaller DO-35 footprint saves board space but offers no documented low-noise advantage over HZS-L series. | Choose for space-constrained designs where verified low-noise performance is not required. |
Compared with 1N4739A and BZX55C9V1, HZS9C1LTA-E delivers uniquely specified low-noise operation and tighter dynamic resistance control at 60 Ω - making it preferred for metrology-grade references where noise and impedance stability outweigh raw power or footprint advantages.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for HZS9C1LTA-E?
The HZS9C1LTA-E has a zener voltage range of 8.9 V to 9.3 V at IZ = 0.5 mA, corresponding to a ±2.2% tolerance around the nominal 9.1 V value. This specification is guaranteed per the Renesas REJ03G0166-0300 datasheet, page 2, and applies under DC test conditions at Ta = 25°C. The HZS9C1LTA-E's tight tolerance supports accurate calibration in closed-loop power supplies and sensor interfaces.
Does HZS9C1LTA-E support surface-mount assembly?
No, HZS9C1LTA-E uses an axial-leaded MHD package (JEITA code GRZZ0002ZC-A) with 5 mm lead pitch and is designed for through-hole mounting and high-speed automatic insertion. It is not a surface-mount device. The package dimensions - φD = 2.0 mm, L = 26.0 mm - confirm its through-hole mechanical form factor. For SMT alternatives, Renesas does not list an SMT variant of the HZS-L series in the provided documentation.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for HZS9C1LTA-E?
The maximum reverse leakage current (IR) for HZS9C1LTA-E is 1 μA at VR = 2.0 V and Ta = 25°C, as specified on page 2 of the REJ03G0166-0300 datasheet. This low leakage ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference nodes - critical for maintaining accuracy in battery-powered sensors and precision op-amp circuits using the HZS9C1LTA-E as a bias reference.
Is HZS9C1LTA-E rated for automotive applications?
No, HZS9C1LTA-E is classified as a "Standard" quality grade device per Renesas' quality grading system (page 1, Note 7), intended for industrial, office, and communications equipment - not automotive or safety-critical systems. It is not qualified to AEC-Q101 or rated for extended temperature ranges beyond −55°C to +175°C storage or 200°C junction. Use in automotive contexts requires explicit written consent from Renesas and validation against AEC requirements.
How does the noise performance of HZS9C1LTA-E compare to standard Zener diodes?
HZS9C1LTA-E achieves approximately 1/3–1/10 lower noise than the legacy HZ-series Zener diodes, as stated in the "Features" section (page 1) of the REJ03G0166-0300 datasheet. This improvement stems from optimized planar junction design and process control - directly enhancing signal integrity in low-level analog paths such as microphone preamps, precision DAC references, and strain gauge exciters where the HZS9C1LTA-E is deployed.
