Product details
Overview
RKZ5.1B2KG-P#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 5.1 V (4.98–5.20 V), 5 μA maximum reverse leakage at 1.5 V, 130 Ω dynamic resistance at 5 mA, and operates within a 200 mW power dissipation limit on PCB - commonly deployed in voltage reference networks for analog sensors and microcontroller reset circuits.
For engineers reviewing the RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 datasheet, RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 pinout, RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 application, or RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its URP (Ultra small Resin Package) footprint, halogen-free compliance, ESD robustness (±30 kV per IEC 61000-4-2), and tight 5% Zener voltage tolerance at 5 mA test current.
Technical Context
This Zener diode uses a silicon planar junction structure optimized for stable reverse-bias operation with minimal temperature drift. Its Zener voltage exhibits a near-zero temperature coefficient around 5.1 V (≈0.02%/°C per Fig.2), enabling stable reference performance across –55°C to +150°C ambient range.
The device is rated for non-repetitive surge reverse power up to ~1.2 W for 10 ms (Fig.4), making it suitable for clamping electrostatic discharge events and low-energy transients. It is not intended for continuous regulation under high-current or high-temperature conditions beyond its 200 mW derated envelope.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.98–5.20 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines stable regulation point for low-current reference applications |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤5 μA at VR = 1.5 V - ensures minimal quiescent current draw in standby bias networks |
| Dynamic Resistance (rd) | 130 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - indicates moderate regulation stiffness; suitable for non-critical references |
| Power Dissipation (Pd) | 200 mW at Ta = 25°C on PCB - sets absolute thermal limit for continuous DC operation |
| ESD Capability | ±30 kV (HBM, C = 150 pF, R = 330 Ω) - provides robust protection against handling and system-level ESD events |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150°C maximum - constrains usable ambient range when mounted on standard FR-4 PCB |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5231B-7-F (Diodes Inc.) | Same 5.1 V nominal Zener, but 225 mW Pd, 17 Ω rd, SOT-23 package (larger than URP) | Higher regulation stiffness; less suitable for ultra-dense layouts where RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1's URP saves board area | Select when tighter dynamic regulation is prioritized over footprint size and ESD rating |
| BZX84-C5V1 (Nexperia) | 5.1 V Zener, 350 mW Pd, 60 Ω rd, SOT-23; no specified HBM ESD rating | Higher power handling but lacks documented ±30 kV ESD robustness; requires external protection in harsh environments | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer applications where ESD immunity is secondary to price and availability |
Compared with MMBZ5231B-7-F and BZX84-C5V1, RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 offers superior ESD resilience and the smallest standardized footprint among 5.1 V Zeners, making it optimal for miniaturized, field-deployed electronics requiring long-term reliability without added protection components.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 at 5 mA test current?
The RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 has a guaranteed Zener voltage range of 4.98 V to 5.20 V at IZ = 5 mA, corresponding to ±2.2% tolerance about the nominal 5.1 V value. This tight specification supports accurate voltage referencing in analog front-ends and reset circuits without post-production trimming.
Does RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 is part of the RKZ-KG-P6 Series and is explicitly certified halogen-free and Pb-free per JEDEC standards. Its material composition complies with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and satisfies industry requirements for environmentally conscious manufacturing.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1?
The maximum junction temperature (Tj) for RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 is 150°C. This rating applies under steady-state conditions with proper PCB thermal relief; derating is required above 25°C ambient per the curve in Fig.3 of the datasheet to maintain reliability.
Can RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 be used as a standalone ESD protection device on a 5 V data line?
RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 provides ±30 kV HBM ESD capability and clamps above ~5.2 V, making it effective for low-energy ESD suppression on 5 V logic lines. However, it is not rated for IEC 61000-4-2 system-level surges alone; pairing with a series current-limiting resistor is recommended for robust protection.
What is the package type and dimensions of RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1?
RKZ5.1B2KG-P#P1 uses the URP (Ultra small Resin Package), also known as SC-76A, with dimensions of 1.70 mm (L) × 1.25 mm (W) × 0.45 mm (H). Its JEITA package code is PTSP0002ZA-A, and it features a two-terminal surface-mount configuration with cathode marking.
