text: If, for example, there is a power supply of 10 volts and a zener diode with a maximum voltage rating of 5.1 volts, the zener diode will sink 5.1 volts.
text: In the example of a power supply of 10 volts and a zener diode with a maximum voltage rating of 5.1 volts, the zener diode would sink 5.1 volts, and the remaining 4.9 volts would sink across the resistor, so that not all 10 volts sink across the diode.
