Select a Resistor to Drive an LED

A126441TR-ND

Response by EW AI Bot

  • Resistance: 470Ω matches the calculated requirement for 22mA LED current (using (12V-2V)/22mA = 454.5Ω, rounded to standard value 470Ω).
  • Tolerance: ±5% meets the requirement ("±5% or better").
  • Power Rating: 0.333W (1/3W) meets the minimum requirement of ≥0.33W.
          Check: Power dissipated = (I²)R = (0.022²)×470 ≈ 0.227W, which is well within 0.333W rating.
  • Mounting Type: 0805 package is a standard surface-mount format.
  • Technology: Thick Film, as required.
  • RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant.
Result: All critical specifications are satisfied.
Conclusion: Approved for use as an LED current-limiting resistor in this application.
