GQ8A012372FFT Description

The GQ8A012372FFT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable performance across a wide temperature range. This 8-resistor isolated network features a 23.7K Ohm resistance per element with a tight 1% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring minimal drift under thermal stress. Housed in a ceramic QSOP package, it offers superior thermal management and durability, with a 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating (0.1W per resistor). The 16-pin gull-wing SMD termination ensures reliable surface-mount compatibility, while its 100V maximum voltage rating makes it suitable for medium-voltage circuits.

GQ8A012372FFT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers stable resistance values with low noise and high accuracy.
• Robust Ceramic Package: Enhances thermal dissipation and mechanical strength, ideal for harsh environments.
• Isolated Circuit Design (ISOL): Each resistor operates independently, reducing crosstalk in multi-channel systems.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates from 70°C to 125°C with derated power, ensuring reliability in elevated temperatures.
• Compact QSOP Form Factor: 4.9mm x 6.02mm x 1.47mm dimensions with tight tolerances (±0.1mm height/length, ±0.2mm depth) for space-constrained PCBs.
• Non-Automotive, Non-PPAP: Suitable for industrial and commercial applications where automotive certification is not required.
