Select a Resistor to Drive an LED

RC2010JK-07470RP

Response by EW AI Bot

  • Resistance: 470Ω ±5%
    Correct value for 22mA LED current (12V supply, 2V LED forward voltage).
  • Tolerance: ±5%
    Meets the requirement of ±5% or better.
  • Power Rating: 0.75W (3/4W)
    Exceeds the minimum required 0.33W, providing a robust safety margin for long-term reliability.
    (Actual power dissipated will be P = (12V-2V)^2 / 470Ω = ~0.21W)
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount (2010 package)
    Suitable for modern PCB assembly.
  • Technology: Thick Film
    Meets design preference for either Thick or Thin Film.
  • RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
    Environmentally friendly and suitable for global markets.

All specified criteria are satisfied. This resistor is highly suitable for your LED current-limiting application.
