When using JEDEC numbers an R suffix should be used to signify reversed polarity. The suffixes A and B indicate tolerances
NOTES:
1.
When using JEDEC numbers an R suffix should be used to signify reversed polarity. The suffixes A and B indicate tolerances
of 10% and 5% respectively. No suffix or just R denotes +/-20% tolerance. Example: 1N3319RB is a REVERSED polarity,
20 volt unit having a +/-5% tolerance on Zener Voltage.
2.
Zener Voltage (
VZ) is measured with junction in thermal equilibrium with 30
oC stud temperature.

Zener Voltage (

oC stud temperature.
3.
The Zener impedance is derived from the 60 cycle ac voltage, which results when an ac current having an rms value equal to
10% of the dc zener current (IZT or IZK) is superimposed on IZT or IZK. Zener impedance is measured at 2 points to ensure a
sharp knee on the breakdown curve and to eliminate unstable units. A curve showing the variation of zener impedance vs.
zener current for three representative types is shown in Figure 2. Also see Microsemi MicroNote 202.
