Product details
Overview
RD11JS-T1-AZ from Renesas Electronics is a 400 mW, DO-34 glass-sealed Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 11.10 V to 11.56 V (AB3 suffix), dynamic impedance ≤100 Ω at 5 mA, reverse current ≤0.1 µA at 8.0 V, and sharp breakdown characteristic for precision voltage reference in low-noise analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the RD11JS-T1-AZ datasheet, RD11JS-T1-AZ pinout, RD11JS-T1-AZ application, or RD11JS-T1-AZ equivalent, this component serves as a stable shunt regulator in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection clamps, and waveform shaping circuits where tight voltage tolerance and low noise are critical.
Technical Context
The RD11JS-T1-AZ operates as a silicon planar Zener diode using DHD (Double Heatsink Diode) construction in a miniature DO-34 package. It achieves sharp breakdown via controlled doping and junction geometry, enabling stable regulation at test current Iz = 5 mA with knee impedance Zzk ≤100 Ω.
Its thermal resistance Rth-JA is 375 °C/W on standard 3 mm × 3 mm copper pad, and it maintains specified performance across –65 °C to +175 °C storage temperature range. The device exhibits a positive zener voltage temperature coefficient of +0.04 %/°C at 11 V, supporting predictable drift behavior in compensated designs.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4740A | 10 V nominal Vz, 1 W power rating, DO-41 package, Zz = 20 Ω at 25 mA | Higher power but looser Vz tolerance (±5%), larger footprint, higher leakage (≤5 µA) | Select when higher surge energy absorption is required and board space allows DO-41 mounting. |
| BZX55C11 | 11 V nominal Vz, 500 mW rating, DO-35 package, Zz = 20 Ω at 5 mA, IR = 0.1 µA at 8.2 V | Similar Vz range and leakage, but DO-35 plastic package offers lower cost and RoHS compliance | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer designs where hermetic glass seal is not mandatory. |
Compared with RD11JS-T1-AZ, the 1N4740A delivers greater surge capacity but sacrifices voltage precision and noise performance; the BZX55C11 matches key electrical specs closely but trades glass-sealed reliability for plastic-package manufacturability and cost efficiency.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for RD11JS-T1-AZ?
The RD11JS-T1-AZ has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 11.10 V to 11.56 V when tested at 5 mA (AB3 suffix). This specification is measured per the D13937EJ5V0DS00 datasheet and reflects the tightest tolerance option within the RD11JS family, making RD11JS-T1-AZ suitable for applications demanding high initial accuracy without post-production trimming.
Is RD11JS-T1-AZ compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
RD11JS-T1-AZ is a DO-34 glass-sealed axial diode intended for through-hole assembly and wave soldering. Its construction does not support standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak >260 °C); exposure to such temperatures risks glass-to-metal seal fracture. RD11JS-T1-AZ should be hand-soldered or wave-soldered using SnPb or low-temperature lead-free alloys (<240 °C peak).
Does RD11JS-T1-AZ have a specified temperature coefficient?
Yes - RD11JS-T1-AZ exhibits a positive zener voltage temperature coefficient of +0.04 %/°C at 11 V, as shown in Figure 6 of the D13937EJ5V0DS00 datasheet. This value enables predictable Vz drift over temperature and supports compensation in precision reference designs where ambient variation exceeds ±20 °C.
What is the maximum reverse current for RD11JS-T1-AZ at 8.0 V?
The maximum reverse current IR for RD11JS-T1-AZ is 0.1 µA at VR = 8.0 V, per the Electrical Characteristics table in the D13937EJ5V0DS00 datasheet. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal error contribution in high-impedance voltage divider or bias networks, preserving accuracy in battery-powered or low-power sensor interfaces.
Can RD11JS-T1-AZ be used in place of RD11JS-T1?
RD11JS-T1-AZ is the standardized Renesas part number superseding earlier NEC-branded RD11JS-T1 variants. Both share identical electrical specifications, DO-34 packaging, and marking (blue cathode band). RD11JS-T1-AZ is fully backward-compatible and represents the current production version following the 2010 Renesas merger.
