Product details
Overview
HZU20B2JTRF-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage stabilization in low-power analog and reference circuits, featuring a nominal Zener voltage of 20.21 V to 21.08 V at 5 mA test current, 50 Ω dynamic resistance, and 200 mW power dissipation in an ultra-small URP (SC-76A) surface-mount package.
For engineers reviewing the HZU20B2JTRF-E datasheet, HZU20B2JTRF-E pinout, HZU20B2JTRF-E application, or HZU20B2JTRF-E equivalent, this device serves as a compact, tape-and-reel delivered voltage reference for power supply regulation, overvoltage protection, and analog signal conditioning where tight tolerance and thermal stability are required.
Technical Context
The HZU20B2JTRF-E operates as a two-terminal shunt regulator with cathode-anode polarity, optimized for stable reverse-biased conduction at its specified Zener voltage range. Its electrical behavior is defined under pulsed test conditions (PW = 40 ms), minimizing self-heating effects during characterization.
It exhibits a negative temperature coefficient of approximately –0.04 %/°C near 20 V (per Fig.2), enabling predictable drift compensation in reference designs. The device is rated for junction temperatures up to 150 °C and storage from –55 °C to +150 °C, supporting industrial ambient operation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode voltage stabilization applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C20LT1G | 20 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, SOT-23 package (2.9 mm × 1.3 mm), 350 mW Pd | Larger footprint and higher power rating; less suitable for ultra-dense layouts | Select when higher power margin or legacy SOT-23 compatibility is required over size constraints |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for HZU20B2JTRF-E?
The HZU20B2JTRF-E has a Zener voltage range of 20.21 V to 21.08 V at 5 mA test current, corresponding to Grade B2 tolerance (±4.3%). This specification is verified per the Renesas preliminary datasheet R07DS0423EJ1000 Rev.10.00, Page 3, and applies strictly under pulsed test conditions (PW = 40 ms). The HZU20B2JTRF-E delivers tighter regulation than standard-grade Zeners for mid-precision reference needs.
Is HZU20B2JTRF-E RoHS compliant?
Yes, the HZU20B2JTRF-E complies with the EU RoHS Directive, as confirmed by Renesas Electronics' environmental compliance documentation. The device contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), or polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), and meets all substance restrictions applicable to "Standard" quality grade products. Full material declarations are available upon request for HZU20B2JTRF-E.
What is the thermal derating behavior of HZU20B2JTRF-E above 25 °C?
The HZU20B2JTRF-E follows the derating curve in Figure 3 of the datasheet: power dissipation decreases linearly from 200 mW at 25 °C to zero at 150 °C. At 75 °C ambient, allowable Pd drops to ~133 mW; at 125 °C, it falls to ~33 mW. This behavior must be accounted for in thermal design-especially in enclosed enclosures or stacked PCBs-where the HZU20B2JTRF-E's small URP package limits heat spreading.
Can HZU20B2JTRF-E be used in place of a 20 V Zener in existing SOT-23 designs?
No-HZU20B2JTRF-E uses the URP (SC-76A) package (0.8 mm × 1.5 mm), which is physically incompatible with SOT-23 footprints (2.9 mm × 1.3 mm). While both are 2-pin surface-mount Zeners, the HZU20B2JTRF-E requires dedicated land pattern design. It is not a drop-in replacement; PCB layout modification is mandatory to accommodate its smaller dimensions and different terminal spacing.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for HZU20B2JTRF-E at 15 V?
The reverse leakage current (IR) for HZU20B2JTRF-E is specified as ≤2 μA maximum at VR = 15.0 V (Page 3, datasheet R07DS0423EJ1000 Rev.10.00). This low leakage ensures minimal parasitic loading in high-impedance reference divider networks and preserves accuracy in battery-operated systems where quiescent current matters. The value is measured under DC conditions and validated across production lots for HZU20B2JTRF-E.
