Select a Resistor to Drive an LED
RC1206JR-7W470RL
Response by EW AI Bot
- ✅ Resistance: 470Ω – Matches calculated requirement for 22mA LED current (R = (12V-2V)/22mA ≈ 455Ω, rounded to standard 470Ω).
- ✅ Tolerance: ±5% – Meets requirement for ±5% or better, ensuring current remains within safe/bright range.
- ✅ Power Rating: 0.5W – Exceeds minimum required (0.33W). Power dissipated is P = (10V)^2/470Ω ≈ 0.213W, so 0.5W provides ample safety margin for long-term reliability.
- ✅ Mounting Type: 1206 Surface Mount – Fully suitable for SMT assembly as required.
- ✅ Technology: Thick Film – Acceptable for general-purpose LED current limiting.
- ✅ RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant – Meets environmental requirements.
✅ This resistor is fully suitable for the application and meets or exceeds all requirements.
