This curve in Figure 2 illustrates the change of

diode voltage arising from the effect of

impedance. It is in effect an exploded view of

the zener operating region of the I-V

characteristic.

In conjunction with Figure 1, this curve can be

used to estimate total voltage regulation under

conditions of both varying temperature and

current.
