TOLERANCE AND VOLTAGE DESIGNATION - The JEDEC type numbers with A suffix are +/-10% with guaranteed limits for V Z , I R , and V F . Units with guaranteed limits for all six parameters are indicated by a B suffix for +/-5.0% units, C suffix for +/-2.0% and D suffix for +/-1.0%. 2. ZENER VOLTAGE (V Z ) MEASUREMENT - o Nominal Zener voltage is measured with the device junction in thermal equilibrium with ambient temperature of 25 C. 3. ZENER IMPEDANCE (Z Z ) MEASUREMENT - The Zener impedance is derived from the 60 Hz ac voltage, which results when an ac current having an rms value equal to 10% of the dc Zener current (I ZT ) is superimposed on I ZT . 4. REVERSE LEAKAGE CURRENT (I R ) - Reverse leakage currents are guaranteed and are measured at V R as shown on the table. 5. MAXIMUM REGULATOR CURRENT (I ZM ) - The maximum current shown is as shown in MIL-PRF-19500/437. 6. MAXIMUM REGULATION FACTOR (V Z ) - V Z is the maximum difference between V Z at I ZT and V Z at I ZL measured with the device junction in thermal equilibrium.
