Select a Resistor to Drive an LED
PCR1206-470RJ1
Response by EW AI Bot
- ✅ Resistance: 470Ω ±5% (matches calculated requirement).
- ✅ Tolerance: ±5% (meets or exceeds requirement).
- ✅ Power Rating: 0.333W (1/3W), meets the minimum 0.33W requirement.
(Calculated power dissipation: (10V x 22mA) = 0.22W. 0.333W rating gives a good safety margin.) - ✅ Mounting Type: Surface Mount (1206 package, suitable for PCB assembly).
- ✅ Technology: Thick Film (acceptable).
- ✅ RoHS Compliance: Yes (ROHS3 Compliant).
All required specifications are met. This resistor is suitable for safely limiting current to a red LED in a 12V application, with appropriate power margin and mounting type.
