Response By EW AI

  • Resistance: 470Ω — matches calculated value
  • Tolerance: ±0.1% — much better than required ±5%
  • Power Rating: 0.4W — exceeds minimum requirement of 0.33W
    At 22mA, actual power dissipated is: P = I²R = (0.022A)² × 470Ω ≈ 0.227W, well within rating
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount (1206 package)
  • Technology: Thin Film — suitable and meets requirement
  • RoHS Compliance: Yes (ROHS3 Compliant)

All key requirements are met or exceeded. This resistor is an excellent and reliable choice for your 12V LED indicator circuit.
