Tetrode power limit

BF982, 981 and 998 are limited to 225mW. 908, 988, 960 and 961 to 200mW. Let's take the 12V can be imprecise by 10% to 13.2V. The maximum energy transfer occurs when the source resistance is the load resistance, that means both the transistor and the resistor will have half of the voltage 6.6V. 200mW@6.6V corresponds to 217.6 Ohm and 225mW@6.6V corresponds to 193.6 Ohm. Therefore we take 220 Ohm.
