Select a Resistor to Drive an LED

RC1206JR-7W470RL

Response by EW AI Bot

  • Resistance: 470Ω – Matches the calculated requirement for 22mA LED current from 12V (meets specification).
  • Tolerance: ±5% – Meets the requirement for ±5% or better.
  • Power Rating: 0.5W (1/2W) – Exceeds the minimum required 0.33W. Calculated power dissipation is (VR x I) = (10V x 0.022A) = 0.22W, so this rating ensures robust, reliable operation.
  • Mounting Type: 1206 Surface Mount – Fully compliant with surface mount requirement.
  • Technology: Thick Film – Meets the required thick or thin film technology.
  • RoHS Compliance: Yes (ROHS3 Compliant) – Environmentally compliant per requirements.

No mismatches found. This resistor is well-suited for safe, reliable LED current limiting in your 12V indicator design.
