Product details
Overview
RD8.2E-T4-AZ from NEC Corporation is a Zener diode in SC-76 (SSP) surface-mount package, rated for 8.2 V nominal breakdown voltage, 500 mW power dissipation, and ±5% voltage tolerance, used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the RD8.2E-T4-AZ datasheet, RD8.2E-T4-AZ pinout, RD8.2E-T4-AZ application, or RD8.2E-T4-AZ equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal stability under 100 mA test current, SC-76 mechanical compatibility with high-density PCB layouts, and taping specification (-T4-AZ) for automated SMT placement.
Technical Context
This device operates as a silicon planar Zener diode with controlled avalanche breakdown at 8.2 V under specified test conditions (IZT = 10 mA). Its SC-76 (SSP) package provides low thermal resistance and supports reflow soldering per J-STD-020.
The -T4-AZ suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging with 3000 units per reel, carrier tape width 8 mm, and orientation compliant with NEC's SC-76 taping standard for automated pick-and-place systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.2 V ±5% at IZT = 10 mA - ensures stable reference within ±0.41 V across production lot |
| Power Dissipation (PZ) | 500 mW - limits maximum continuous DC power in ambient ≤75°C without derating |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 15 Ω max at IZT = 10 mA - maintains low dynamic impedance for ripple suppression |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1 μA max at VR = 6.5 V - guarantees minimal standby current in voltage-clamp mode |
| Package | SC-76 (SSP) - 1.6 × 0.8 × 0.6 mm footprint compatible with 0603 land pattern |
Pinout & Package
SC-76 (SSP) is a 2-terminal surface-mount package with cathode band marking on one end; terminals are unidirectional anode/cathode with no internal connection between pins.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry terminal during forward bias | Connected to lower-potential node in reverse-biased Zener operation |
| Cathode | Current exit terminal during forward bias; Zener conduction terminal | Marked end; connected to higher-potential node for voltage regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Stable Zener voltage tolerance | ±5% at 10 mA enables predictable clamping in 3.3 V/5 V rail protection |
| Low Zener impedance | ≤15 Ω minimizes output voltage variation under load transients |
| SC-76 mechanical standardization | 1.6 × 0.8 mm outline supports 0.4 mm pitch placement and AOI inspection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584-C8V2 | Same 8.2 V ±5%, but 300 mW rating and SOD-523 package (1.3 × 0.8 mm) | Lower power handling; tighter footprint but higher thermal resistance | Select when board space is constrained and peak power <300 mW |
| MMSZ5231B | 8.2 V ±5%, 500 mW, SOD-123 package (3.7 × 1.6 mm) | Larger footprint and 2× higher thermal mass; slower transient response | Select when thermal margin >10°C required or legacy SOD-123 layout exists |
Compared with BZX584-C8V2 and MMSZ5231B, RD8.2E-T4-AZ offers optimal balance of SC-76 size, 500 mW capability, and standardized taping-making it preferred for new 0603-compatible designs requiring automated assembly and moderate power clamping.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of RD8.2E-T4-AZ?
The RD8.2E-T4-AZ has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at test current IZT = 10 mA, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 7.79 V and 8.61 V under standard conditions. This tolerance is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and is verified during final electrical testing before shipment.
Does RD8.2E-T4-AZ support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, RD8.2E-T4-AZ is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per J-STD-020, with peak temperature up to 260°C for 10 seconds. Its SC-76 (SSP) package uses matte tin plating and meets JEDEC moisture sensitivity level MSL-1, eliminating bake requirements prior to assembly.
What does the "-T4-AZ" suffix indicate in RD8.2E-T4-AZ?
The "-T4-AZ" suffix specifies tape-and-reel packaging: T4 denotes 8 mm carrier tape width, 3000 units per reel, and AZ indicates compliance with NEC's internal taping standard for SC-76 devices, including pocket depth, cover tape adhesion, and orientation alignment for high-speed SMT feeders.
Can RD8.2E-T4-AZ be used as a voltage reference in precision circuits?
RD8.2E-T4-AZ is suitable for non-critical voltage references where ±5% initial accuracy and moderate temperature coefficient suffice. It is not recommended for high-precision applications requiring <0.1% tolerance or <10 ppm/°C TC-those require bandgap or buried-Zener references instead.
Is RD8.2E-T4-AZ pin-compatible with other SC-76 Zener diodes?
Yes, RD8.2E-T4-AZ shares identical SC-76 (SSP) mechanical dimensions and terminal polarity with all NEC RD-series Zeners in the same package, including RD6.2S-T1 and RD10E-T2. Cathode band orientation and pad layout match industry-standard 0603 footprints.
