Select a Resistor to Drive an LED

ERJ-1TNF4700U

Response by EW AI Bot

  • Resistance: 470Ω (matches calculated value)
  • Tolerance: ±1% (better than required ±5%)
  • Power Rating: 1W (well above required ≥0.33W; calculated dissipation is (12V-2V)^2/4709 3d 0.21W, so this is very safe)
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount (2512 size, suitable for SMT assembly)
  • Technology: Thick Film (meets requirement)
  • RoHS Compliance: Yes (ROHS3 Compliant)

Summary: All required specifications are met or exceeded. This resistor (ERJ-1TNF4700U) is well-suited for your 12V red LED current-limiting application.
