Abstract
We have studied the voltage noise of electronic voltage standards based on Zener diode references (Zeners). Ten volt Zener outputs were compared to NIST Josephson standards using a DVM to record voltage differences. The data were analyzed using the Allan variance. We have characterized the 1/f noise of 22 Zeners of three types. We also present evidence of enhanced white noise in Zeners.Proceedings Title
