Product details
Overview
RD4.7E(N)-T2 from NEC Corporation is a 4.7 V Zener diode in SC-76 (SSP) surface-mount package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation, ±5% tolerance, and 100 µA maximum reverse leakage at rated voltage, used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the RD4.7E(N)-T2 datasheet, RD4.7E(N)-T2 pinout, RD4.7E(N)-T2 application, or RD4.7E(N)-T2 equivalent, key selection factors include Zener voltage accuracy, power derating behavior above 25°C, thermal resistance of the SC-76 package, and compatibility with automated SMT placement systems using -T2 taping orientation.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. Its SC-76 (SSP) package provides low thermal resistance (500°C/W junction-to-air) and supports reflow soldering per J-STD-020.
The -T2 taping specification defines device orientation on the carrier tape-cathode toward sprocket holes-with 3000 units per reel, enabling consistent pick-and-place alignment during high-speed assembly.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.7 V ±5% at IZ = 5 mA - ensures stable reference within ±0.235 V across production lot |
| Power Dissipation (PZ) | 500 mW at TA = 25°C - limits continuous operation without heatsinking in ambient air |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤100 µA at VR = 3.76 V - guarantees minimal current draw in standby regulation circuits |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 15 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - maintains low dynamic impedance for effective ripple suppression |
| Package | SC-76 (SSP) - 1.6 mm × 0.8 mm footprint, 0.55 mm height, compatible with 0805 land pattern |
| Taping Format | -T2 orientation - cathode aligned toward sprocket holes, 3000 devices per 8 mm tape reel |
Pinout & Package
SC-76 (SSP) is a 2-terminal surface-mount package with anode and cathode terminals exposed on opposite ends of the molded body. Cathode identified by band marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal | Connected to lower potential side in reverse-biased Zener configuration |
| Cathode | Breakdown voltage reference terminal | Banded end; connected to higher potential side to enable Zener conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4732A | 4.7 V ±5%, 1 W rating, DO-41 through-hole package | Requires PCB through-hole mounting and manual or wave soldering | Choose when board space allows larger footprint and higher power margin is needed |
| BZX55C4V7 | 4.7 V ±5%, 500 mW, DO-35 glass package with axial leads | Not compatible with SMT assembly; higher thermal resistance (750°C/W) | Prefer only for prototyping or legacy through-hole designs where rework is frequent |
Compared with RD4.7E(N)-T2, the 1N4732A offers higher power handling but requires layout redesign for through-hole, while BZX55C4V7 matches power rating but lacks tape-and-reel support and SMT compatibility-making RD4.7E(N)-T2 optimal for volume automated production of compact PCBs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of RD4.7E(N)-T2?
The RD4.7E(N)-T2 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 5 mA test current, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 4.465 V and 4.935 V under standard test conditions. This tolerance is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and applies to every unit shipped, supporting reliable voltage reference design without post-production calibration.
Does RD4.7E(N)-T2 support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, RD4.7E(N)-T2 is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per J-STD-020, with peak temperature rating up to 260°C for 10 seconds. Its SC-76 (SSP) package uses matte tin plating on terminations and passes MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity classification, eliminating bake requirements prior to assembly.
How many RD4.7E(N)-T2 devices are on a standard reel?
A standard reel of RD4.7E(N)-T2 contains 3000 devices, supplied in -T2 taping orientation with cathode aligned toward sprocket holes. The tape width is 8 mm, and the reel complies with EIA-481-D standards for automated placement equipment compatibility.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for RD4.7E(N)-T2?
The maximum reverse leakage current for RD4.7E(N)-T2 is 100 µA at 3.76 V (80% of nominal Zener voltage), measured at 25°C ambient. This value ensures minimal quiescent current draw in always-on regulation nodes, such as battery-backed real-time clock supervisors or low-power sensor bias networks.
Can RD4.7E(N)-T2 be used in place of RD4.7E-T1?
No-RD4.7E(N)-T2 and RD4.7E-T1 differ in tape orientation: -T2 places the cathode toward sprocket holes, while -T1 reverses this direction. Substituting them without adjusting pick-and-place program and AOI setup risks misaligned placement and solder joint defects, even though electrical specs and package dimensions are identical.
