Another interesting fact is that the Zener Voltage is current dependant, this requires that the zener resistors are selected to keep the circuit current in the required area as much as possible. As shown by the included circuit, EC's Zener current is approximately 13.6mA. http://everycircuit.com/circuit/6522299619737600
