R Load resistance
U External power supply voltage
The diagram shows the maximum load resistance R as a function of voltage U of the con-
nected voltage source. Higher load resistances are allowed with higher power supply val-
ues. The usable zone for passive power output operation is indicated by the hatched
area.
