Product details
Overview
RD2.2UM-T1-A from Renesas Electronics is a 2-pin Ultra Super Mini Mold (USM) surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 2.2 V, 150 mW power dissipation, and dynamic impedance ≤0.7 Ω at 5 mA test current-designed for precision low-voltage regulation in space-constrained consumer and industrial control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the RD2.2UM-T1-A datasheet, RD2.2UM-T1-A pinout, RD2.2UM-T1-A application, or RD2.2UM-T1-A equivalent, this device serves as a compact, E24-standard-compliant voltage reference for constant-voltage biasing, waveform clipping, and transient suppression where tight VZ tolerance (±0.15 V), low ZZ, and stable thermal coefficient are critical.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with sharp knee characteristics, enabling accurate clamping and reference functions at low currents (5–100 mA). Its USM package supports high-density PCB layouts while maintaining thermal performance up to 150 °C junction temperature.
Rated for 85 W surge reverse power at 10 µs pulse width, RD2.2UM-T1-A delivers robust transient immunity without external protection components. The device exhibits a typical temperature coefficient of +0.02 %/°C near 2.2 V, ensuring minimal drift across ambient operating ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 2.10–2.40 V at IZ = 5 mA - ensures precise low-voltage reference within ±0.15 V tolerance for analog biasing and feedback networks. |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZ | ≤0.7 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - maintains stable output voltage under varying load conditions in regulator and clamp circuits. |
| Power Dissipation P | 150 mW at TA = 25 °C - defines maximum continuous DC power handling on standard FR-4 or ceramic PCBs. |
| Reverse Surge Power | 85 W at t = 10 µs (single pulse) - provides inherent protection against short-duration transients without added TVS devices. |
| Junction Temperature | 150 °C - allows operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed power supplies and motor drivers. |
| Package | 2-pin Ultra Super Mini Mold (USM) - 2.1 × 1.3 mm footprint with 0.3 mm cathode marking height, optimized for automated SMT assembly. |
| Reverse Current IR | ≤120 µA at VR = 0.5 V - guarantees low leakage in standby and battery-powered applications. |
Pinout & Package
RD2.2UM-T1-A uses a 2-pin Ultra Super Mini Mold (USM) package with anode and cathode terminals. Cathode is marked by a visible band on the top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Reference ground node | Connected to circuit ground or lower-potential rail when used in reverse-biased Zener configuration. |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / Output reference node | Provides regulated voltage relative to anode; polarity must be observed to avoid forward conduction failure. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Sharp breakdown knee | Enables clean voltage clamping at low currents (5 mA), reducing need for series resistors in reference paths. |
| E24-standard VZ | Supports standardized BOM selection and interchangeability across common low-voltage design points. |
| Low dynamic impedance | 0.7 Ω at 5 mA minimizes output voltage variation under load changes in precision shunt regulators. |
| Ultra compact USM package | 2.1 × 1.3 mm footprint saves >40% board area vs. standard SOD-323, critical for wearables and IoT sensors. |
| High surge power rating | 85 W peak capability eliminates need for parallel transient suppressors in cost-sensitive ESD-prone interfaces. |
Applications
| USB Port Protection | Microcontroller Reset Circuit |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Clamping 5 V USB VBUS line against ESD and hot-swap transients in portable peripherals. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt-type transient absorber placed between VBUS and GND, conducting above 2.4 V to limit downstream voltage. Use Value: Leverages 85 W surge rating and 0.7 Ω ZZ to clamp spikes below IC damage thresholds without adding TVS diodes. |
Use Scenario: Generating a stable 2.2 V reference for microcontroller reset comparator threshold. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision voltage reference source feeding into reset IC input or internal bandgap comparator. Use Value: Tight 2.10–2.40 V tolerance and low temperature coefficient ensure reliable reset assertion across –40 to +85 °C. |
| LED Current Regulation | Op-Amp Bias Network |
|
Use Scenario: Setting fixed bias point for constant-current LED driver using shunt-regulated topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener-based current-setting element in emitter-follower or op-amp-controlled LED sink. Use Value: Low 0.7 Ω impedance maintains stable current despite supply ripple, improving LED brightness consistency. |
Use Scenario: Providing matched reference voltage for dual-supply op-amp input biasing in audio preamps. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-noise DC reference node stabilizing virtual ground or common-mode level. Use Value: Sharp breakdown and minimal leakage (<120 µA) prevent offset drift and signal distortion in high-gain stages. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584-C2V2 (Nexperia) | VZ = 2.2 V ±5%, ZZ = 15 Ω @ 5 mA - higher impedance, larger SOD-323 package (3.7 × 1.6 mm). | Limited to non-critical biasing due to higher ZZ; unsuitable for low-current precision references. | Select when legacy SOD-323 footprint compatibility is required and tighter regulation is not needed. |
| MMSZ4678 (ON Semiconductor) | VZ = 2.0 V ±5%, ZZ = 100 Ω @ 1 mA - lower nominal voltage, significantly higher impedance, same SOD-123 footprint. | Higher ZZ causes greater voltage droop under load; less effective for active regulation or clamping. | Choose only for basic overvoltage limiting where 2.0 V threshold suffices and board space permits SOD-123. |
Compared with BZX584-C2V2 and MMSZ4678, RD2.2UM-T1-A delivers superior regulation accuracy (±0.15 V), ultra-low dynamic impedance (0.7 Ω), and 60% smaller USM footprint-making it optimal for high-density, low-drift applications where space and stability are constrained.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of RD2.2UM-T1-A?
The RD2.2UM-T1-A has a specified zener voltage range of 2.10 V to 2.40 V at IZ = 5 mA, corresponding to a ±0.15 V absolute tolerance. This tight window meets E24 standard grading and enables predictable performance in low-voltage reference designs without post-production trimming.
Can RD2.2UM-T1-A be used in place of a standard 2.2 V Zener in SOD-323 packages?
No-RD2.2UM-T1-A uses the proprietary Ultra Super Mini Mold (USM) package (2.1 × 1.3 mm), which is physically smaller than SOD-323 (3.7 × 1.6 mm). Direct substitution requires PCB layout revision. Its electrical specs differ too: RD2.2UM-T1-A offers 0.7 Ω ZZ, versus ~15 Ω for typical SOD-323 2.2 V Zeners like BZX584-C2V2.
What is the maximum reverse surge power rating for RD2.2UM-T1-A?
RD2.2UM-T1-A is rated for 85 W of reverse surge power at a pulse width of 10 µs (single pulse), per Figure 6 in Renesas datasheet D13562EJ2V0DS00. This rating applies at TA = 25 °C and supports transient suppression in I/O lines without external TVS devices.
Does RD2.2UM-T1-A meet RoHS requirements?
Yes-RD2.2UM-T1-A complies with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. Renesas confirms environmental compliance in its product documentation and supports material declarations upon request. No lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE substances exceed allowable limits.
What is the thermal resistance characteristic of RD2.2UM-T1-A?
RD2.2UM-T1-A exhibits a transient thermal impedance (Zth) of 833 °C/W at t = 1 ms on a 30 × 30 × 1.6 mm glass epoxy PCB (Fig. 5, D13562EJ2V0DS00). This value decreases with longer time constants, supporting safe operation under pulsed power conditions typical in surge events.
