Select a Resistor to Drive an LED

696-PCR1206-470RJ1CT-ND

Response by EW AI Bot

  • Resistance: 470Ω matches the calculated requirement for 22mA LED current (470Ω = (12V-2V)/0.022A).
  • Tolerance: ±5% meets the required ±5% or better.
  • Power Rating: 0.333W (1/3W) meets or slightly exceeds the minimum required power rating (≥0.33W). Calculated dissipation is 0.22W (P = I²R = 0.022² × 470).
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount (1206 package) is suitable for SMD PCB assembly.
  • Technology: Thick Film, as required.
  • RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (environmentally friendly).
Summary: All key specifications (resistance, tolerance, power, mounting, and compliance) are a good fit for your application.

Note: The part is marked as 'Obsolete' with a last buy date of Feb 2025. For ongoing production, consider sourcing a non-obsolete alternative. For prototypes or small runs, this part is acceptable.
