Response by EW AI Bot

  • Resistance: 470Ω matches the required value.
  • Tolerance: ±5% meets the required tolerance of ±5% or better.
  • Power Rating: 0.333W (1/3W) meets the required power rating (≥0.33W).
    At 22mA, power dissipated = (10V × 0.022A) = 0.22W, which is well within the rating, ensuring reliability and longevity.
  • Mounting Type: Surface mount (1206 package) is suitable for your PCB design.
  • Technology: Thick Film is acceptable as specified.
  • RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant.

Result: All key parameters (resistance, tolerance, power rating, mounting, technology, and RoHS) are met. This part is well-suited to safely and reliably limit current for your LED at 12V.
