Product details
Overview
RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage stabilization and transient surge absorption in low-power signal and bias circuits. It delivers a nominal Zener voltage of 3.0 V (2.95–3.20 V), 50 μA maximum reverse current at 1.0 V, and 120 Ω dynamic resistance at 5 mA, housed in an ultra-small URP (SC-76A) surface-mount package for compact PCB layouts.
For engineers reviewing the RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 datasheet, RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 pinout, RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 application, or RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 equivalent, this device serves as a halogen-free, Pb-free voltage reference and ESD clamp in space-constrained consumer, industrial, and communication modules where stable low-voltage regulation and 30 kV ESD robustness are required.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain a stable reference voltage across its terminals under varying load and temperature conditions. Its design targets low-current stabilization (IZ = 5 mA) with tight voltage tolerance (±3.3% at 3.0 V) and low temperature coefficient near zero crossing (≈0 mV/°C per Fig.2).
The RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 integrates ESD protection capability rated at ±30 kV (IEC 61000-4-2, C = 150 pF, R = 330 Ω), making it suitable for input/output line clamping without external TVS devices. Its URP package enables high-density mounting while maintaining thermal performance up to 150°C junction temperature.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of RKZ3.0B2KG#P1?
The RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 has a specified Zener voltage range of 2.95 V to 3.20 V at 5 mA test current, corresponding to ±3.3% tolerance around the nominal 3.0 V rating. This tight tolerance ensures consistent voltage reference behavior across production lots and supports accurate reset threshold generation in microcontroller systems using RKZ3.0B2KG#P1.
Does RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 support lead-free soldering processes?
Yes, RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 is fully compatible with lead-free reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020. Its halogen-free, Pb-free URP package meets IPC/JEDEC standards for peak reflow temperatures up to 260°C, and the device is supplied in moisture-sensitive level 1 tape-and-reel packaging-ensuring reliable assembly in modern SMT lines without RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 degradation.
How does the ESD rating of RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 compare to standard Zener diodes?
RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 is rated for ±30 kV HBM ESD (C = 150 pF, R = 330 Ω), significantly exceeding typical Zener diodes (often 8–16 kV). This high rating stems from optimized junction design and process control, allowing RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 to serve as both voltage reference and primary ESD clamp-reducing BOM count in USB, GPIO, and sensor interface circuits without compromising RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 stability.
Can RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 be used in place of a 3.3 V Zener diode?
No-RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 is specifically characterized for 3.0 V nominal operation (2.95–3.20 V), not 3.3 V. Substituting it for a 3.3 V Zener (e.g., RKZ3.3B2KG) would result in undershoot of the target regulation voltage, potentially causing improper reset assertion or reference error. Always match the exact Zener voltage grade; RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 must be used only where 3.0 V stabilization is specified.
What is the thermal derating behavior of RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 above 25°C?
RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 follows standard thermal derating: its 200 mW power dissipation rating decreases linearly above 25°C ambient, reaching zero at +150°C junction temperature. Per Fig.3 in the datasheet, usable power drops to ~120 mW at +85°C ambient-requiring appropriate copper pour and trace width design to maintain RKZ3.0B2KG#P1 junction temperature within limits during continuous operation.
