Product details
Overview
RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT from Renesas Electronics is a 200 mW, 7.5 V Zener diode in Super Mini Mold (SOD-323) package, featuring sharp breakdown characteristic, dynamic impedance of 30 Ω at 5 mA, and reverse current ≤2 μA at 4.0 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference and surge absorber in low-power analog signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT datasheet, RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT pinout, RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT application, or RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal derating behavior, zener voltage tolerance (±4.5% at 7.03–7.87 V), and direct alternatives for voltage regulation and waveform clamping in consumer and industrial electronics.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates with a nominal zener voltage of 7.5 V, tested under pulsed conditions (40 ms), and exhibits a temperature coefficient of approximately +0.04 %/°C per Fig.9 - indicating positive drift above ~5 V. Its dynamic impedance remains stable at 30 Ω when biased at 5 mA, supporting consistent regulation across load variations.
The device is rated for junction temperatures up to 150°C and storage from –55°C to +150°C. With a reverse surge power rating of 85 W (t = 10 μs, single pulse), it provides transient overvoltage protection without requiring external series limiting resistors in low-energy clamp applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 7.03–7.87 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines usable regulation window for ±4.5% tolerance designs |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | 30 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage shift under small-signal load changes |
| Power Dissipation (P) | 200 mW at TA = 25°C - limits continuous bias current to ~26 mA at 7.5 V without heatsinking |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤2 μA at VR = 4.0 V - guarantees high off-state impedance for low-leakage reference nodes |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150°C max - sets upper thermal boundary for PCB layout and ambient derating calculations |
| Surge Power (PRSM) | 85 W for 10 μs pulse - enables single-event ESD/surge suppression without external TVS staging |
| Package | SOD-323 (2-pin Super Mini Mold) - 1.25 mm × 0.9 mm footprint ideal for space-constrained portable PCBs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584-C7V5 | Same 7.5 V nominal, 200 mW rating, but SOD-523 package (smaller: 1.2 × 0.8 mm); ZZ = 35 Ω max | Higher board density possible; slightly higher dynamic impedance reduces regulation precision | Choose BZX584-C7V5 only if PCB area is constrained and ±5% regulation tolerance is acceptable. |
| MMSZ5236B | 7.5 V nominal, 500 mW rating, SOD-123 package; ZZ = 15 Ω max at 20 mA; tighter tolerance (±5% vs ±4.5%) | Higher power handling supports 20 mA bias; lower ZZ improves load regulation but requires larger footprint | Select MMSZ5236B when sustained current >15 mA or improved regulation stability is required despite larger size. |
Compared with RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT, BZX584-C7V5 trades package miniaturization for marginally higher impedance, while MMSZ5236B offers superior regulation performance at the cost of 2.5× PCB area - making RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT optimal for space-limited 5–10 mA reference designs requiring tight voltage tolerance and proven thermal reliability.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range specified for RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT?
The RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 7.03 V to 7.87 V when tested at IZ = 5 mA using pulsed (40 ms) conditions, per Renesas datasheet D11444EJ6V0DS. This ±4.5% tolerance aligns with E24 standard values and applies to all units within the B-class grading. The device does not specify tighter binning (e.g., B1/B2/B3) in its full part number, so design margins must accommodate the full min/max span.
Can RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT be used in place of a 5.1 V Zener diode?
No - RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT is strictly a 7.5 V zener diode with a minimum VZ of 7.03 V and maximum of 7.87 V. Substituting it for a 5.1 V device would result in incorrect regulation voltage, potentially causing overvoltage stress on downstream components. For 5.1 V applications, Renesas' RD5.1S(0)-T1-AT (4.82–5.39 V) or equivalent should be selected instead.
What is the maximum allowable forward current for RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT?
The absolute maximum forward current for RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT is 100 mA at TA = 25°C, as stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. However, sustained forward conduction is not its intended operating mode; the device is optimized for reverse-bias zener operation. Continuous forward current above ~20 mA may cause excessive self-heating and degrade long-term reliability.
Does RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT have automotive qualification?
No - RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT is classified as a "Standard" quality grade device per Renesas documentation, intended for computers, office equipment, communications gear, and industrial robots. It is not qualified to AEC-Q200 or rated for automotive under-hood or safety-critical applications. For automotive use, Renesas' "High Quality" grade Zeners (e.g., specific variants with extended temp range and qualification testing) must be selected.
How does the thermal derating curve affect RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT's usable power at 70°C ambient?
Per Fig.1 in the datasheet, RD7.5S(0)-T1-AT's power dissipation derates linearly from 200 mW at 25°C to ~120 mW at 70°C ambient on a standard FR-4 PCB (30 mm × 30 mm × 1.6 mm). This means the maximum continuous zener current drops from ~26.7 mA (200 mW / 7.5 V) to ~16 mA (120 mW / 7.5 V), requiring appropriate series resistance selection to avoid exceeding thermal limits.
