NOTES:
1. TOLERANCE AND VOLTAGE DESIGNATION
The JEDEC type numbers without a letter prior to the UR-1 suffix are +/-20% with guaranteed limits for only VZ, IR, and VF. Units with “A”
prior to the UR-1 suffix are +/-10% with guaranteed limits for VZ, IR, and VF. Units with guaranteed limits for all six parameters are
indicat ed by a B suffix for +/-5.0% units, C suffix for +/-2.0% and D suffi x for +/ -1.0% prior to the UR-1 suffix.
2. ZENER VOLTAGE (VZ) MEASUREMENT
Nominal zener voltage is measured with the device junction in thermal equilibrium with ambient temperature of 25 oC.
3. ZENER IMPEDANCE (ZZ) MEASUREMENT
The zener impedance is derived from the 60 Hz ac voltage, which results when an ac current havi ng an rms value equal to 10% of t he dc
zener current (IZT) is superimposed on IZT.
4. REV E RSE CURRE NT (IR)
Reverse currents are guaranteed and are measured at VR as shown on the table.
5. MAXIMUM REGULATOR CURRENT (IZM)
The m aximum current shown is as shown in MIL-PRF-19500/437.
6. MAXIMUM REGULATI O N FA CT OR (VZ)
VZ is the maximum differenc e between VZ at IZT and VZ at IZL measured with the device junction in thermal equilibri um.
