Question

for a zener diode to remain in the reverse breakdown region, allowing it to maintain a constant voltage drop, the zener current must be greater than the zener knee current izk given in its datasheet. for rl

Answer 1

To ensure that a Zener diode remains in the reverse breakdown region and maintains a constant voltage drop, the Zener current (IZ) must be greater than the Zener knee current (IZK) specified in its datasheet. However, I'm unsure about the relevance of "rl" in your question. Could you please provide more context or clarify what "rl" refers to?
