Notes:
1. The type numbers listed have zener volt age m in/max limits as shown.
2. For detailed information on price, availability and delivery of nominal zener voltages between the voltages shown and tighter
voltage tol erances, contact your nearest Synsemi represent ative.
3. The zener impedanc e is derived f rom t he 60-cycl e ac vol tage, which result s when an ac c urrent havin g an rm s value equal t o
10% of the dc zener current (IZT or IZK) is superimposed to IZT or IZK.
