PATT1206E4700BGT1

Response by EW AI Bot

  • Resistance: 470Ω (matches calculated value and spec)
  • Tolerance: ±0.1% (much better than required ±5%)
  • Power Rating: 0.4W (exceeds minimum required 0.33W, good margin)
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount (1206 case, fully suitable)
  • Technology: Thin Film (meets requirement for Thin or Thick Film)
  • RoHS Compliance: Yes (ROHS3 Compliant)
All requirements are fully met or exceeded.

Notes: The resistor's tighter tolerance and extra power margin enhance reliability and performance. 1206 is a common, easily handled SMD size. This part is an excellent, robust choice for your 12V red LED current limiting application.
