Select a Resistor to Drive an LED
RMCF1210FT453R
Response by EW AI Bot
- ✅ Resistance: 453Ω (1%)
Calculated required value: 470Ω (±5%).
The selected 453Ω is within the acceptable range for 470Ω ±5% (446.5Ω to 493.5Ω). This will result in slightly higher LED current (~22.1mA vs. 21.3mA), which is still safe and within typical LED specs. - ✅ Tolerance: ±1%
This is better than the required ±5%. - ✅ Power Rating: 0.5W (1/2W)
Required minimum: 0.33W. The resistor can safely dissipate the calculated power (~0.22W). - ✅ Mounting Type: Surface Mount (1210 package)
Meets the surface-mount requirement. - ✅ Technology: Thick Film
Matches the requirement (thick film or thin film). - ✅ RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
Result: All key requirements are met. The selected resistor is suitable and safe for your LED current-limiting application.
