GQ8A013480GBT Description

The GQ8A013480GBT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values and reliable isolation. This 8-resistor network features a 348Ω resistance per element with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring consistent performance across a wide operating temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. Housed in a 16-pin QSOP ceramic package, it offers 0.75W (3/4W) total power dissipation and 0.1W (1/10W) per resistor, making it suitable for demanding circuit designs. The isolated (ISOL) configuration enhances signal integrity by minimizing crosstalk, while the gull-wing SMD termination ensures secure PCB mounting.
