Product details
Overview
RD39JS-T1-AZ from Renesas Electronics is a 39 V, 400 mW glass-encapsulated Zener diode in DO-34 package, featuring sharp breakdown characteristics, low noise (≤50 µV at 10–500 kHz), and ±5% zener voltage tolerance at 5 mA test current. It operates with 0.1 µA maximum reverse leakage at 30 V and supports constant-voltage regulation in low-power analog reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the RD39JS-T1-AZ datasheet, RD39JS-T1-AZ pinout, RD39JS-T1-AZ application, or RD39JS-T1-AZ equivalent, this device serves as a precision voltage reference in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection clamps, and waveform shaping circuits where stable 39 V regulation and low dynamic impedance (Zz = 120 Ω typical) are required.
Technical Context
This Zener diode employs Double Heatsink Diode (DHD) construction for improved thermal dissipation in the miniature DO-34 glass package (2.4 mm max body length). Its sharp knee characteristic ensures stable regulation onset at precisely defined breakdown voltage, with dynamic impedance measured at 5 mA DC bias plus small-signal AC perturbation.
The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.08 %/°C at 39 V, enabling predictable drift behavior in ambient-temperature-varying applications. Its surge capability supports 2.4 W non-repetitive reverse power pulses (t = 10 µs), making it suitable for transient suppression in low-energy signal paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (Vz) | 37.04–40.99 V at Iz = 5 mA - defines precise regulation point with ±5% tolerance per E24 standard. |
| Power Dissipation (P) | 400 mW at TA = 25 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling before thermal derating applies. |
| Dynamic Impedance (Zz) | 120 Ω typical at Iz = 5 mA - determines output voltage stability under load current variation. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 µA max at VR = 30 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in high-impedance bias networks. |
| Noise Level (en) | ≤50 µV RMS (10–500 kHz) - critical for low-noise reference and sensor excitation applications. |
| Surge Power (PRSM) | 2.4 W (t = 10 µs) - enables brief overvoltage clamping without failure during transient events. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175 °C max - defines upper thermal limit for reliable long-term operation. |
Pinout & Package
RD39JS-T1-AZ uses a DO-34 glass-sealed axial package with cathode indicated by a blue band. The device has two terminals: anode and cathode. No internal circuitry or multi-pin configuration exists - it is a two-terminal passive voltage-reference device.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal | Connected to lower-potential node in reverse-biased Zener operation; carries forward current up to 150 mA. |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal | Marked with blue band; connected to higher-potential node to enable reverse-bias regulation at 39 V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise operation | ≤50 µV RMS noise (10–500 kHz) enables use in precision analog references without added filtering. |
| Sharp breakdown knee | Defined transition from blocking to conduction at Vz minimizes regulation uncertainty in feedback loops. |
| DHD construction | Double Heatsink Diode design improves thermal resistance to ambient, supporting stable 400 mW operation. |
| E24-standard voltage | Vz aligned to E24 series (39 V nominal) ensures compatibility with industry-standard BOM planning and sourcing. |
| DO-34 glass package | Hermetically sealed, JEDEC-compliant axial package offers moisture resistance and long-term parameter stability. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4763A-T | 39 V, 1 W, DO-41 package, Zz = 90 Ω, IR = 1 µA at 31.2 V | Higher power rating but larger footprint; less suitable for space-constrained PCBs | Select when >400 mW continuous dissipation or higher surge margin is required. |
| BZX55-C39 | 39 V, 500 mW, DO-35 package, Zz = 100 Ω, IR = 0.1 µA at 30 V | Plastic DO-35 vs. glass DO-34; slightly better leakage but lower thermal reliability | Prefer for cost-sensitive consumer designs where hermetic sealing is not mandatory. |
Compared with RD39JS-T1-AZ, the 1N4763A-T offers higher power and lower impedance but requires layout changes due to DO-41 size, while the BZX55-C39 matches voltage and leakage closely but trades glass-seal reliability for plastic-package cost savings.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for RD39JS-T1-AZ at 5 mA test current?
The RD39JS-T1-AZ has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 37.04 V to 40.99 V when tested at Iz = 5 mA, corresponding to ±5% tolerance around the nominal 39 V rating per E24 standard. This range is verified per Renesas datasheet D13937EJ5V0DS00 and applies to all units shipped under this part number.
Does RD39JS-T1-AZ have a specified junction-to-ambient thermal resistance?
Yes - RD39JS-T1-AZ exhibits a thermal resistance of 375 °C/W (typical) from junction to ambient on a standard 3 mm × 3 mm copper pad (0.035 mm thick), as shown in Figure 7 of the official datasheet. This value decreases with larger PCB copper area, enabling safe 400 mW operation within derated ambient temperature limits.
Can RD39JS-T1-AZ be used in place of a 39 V Zener in a feedback divider for a DC-DC controller?
Yes - RD39JS-T1-AZ is routinely applied in feedback networks for isolated flyback and forward converters. Its sharp knee and low dynamic impedance (120 Ω) ensure accurate regulation; however, designers must verify that the controller's feedback pin bias current remains below 0.1 µA to avoid voltage error from leakage.
Is RD39JS-T1-AZ RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes - RD39JS-T1-AZ meets EU RoHS Directive requirements and is manufactured as a lead-free device. Renesas confirms compliance in environmental documentation, and the DO-34 glass package contains no restricted substances above threshold limits per Annex II of Directive 2011/65/EU.
What is the maximum allowable reverse voltage before breakdown for RD39JS-T1-AZ?
The RD39JS-T1-AZ begins controlled breakdown at its specified zener voltage (37.04–40.99 V); below this, reverse leakage remains ≤0.1 µA up to VR = 30 V. Applying voltage between 30 V and Vz risks uncontrolled conduction - therefore, 30 V is the practical maximum non-breakdown reverse voltage for safe biasing.
