GQ8A014870BAT Description

The GQ8A014870BAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision thin-film resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. This 8-resistor isolated (ISOL) network features a 487Ω resistance value with an ultra-tight 0.1% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stable performance across a wide temperature range of 70°C to 125°C. Housed in a ceramic QSOP package, it offers superior thermal stability and durability. The 16-pin gull-wing SMD termination facilitates reliable surface mounting, while the 0.1W (1/10W) power rating per resistor and 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating make it suitable for power-sensitive designs. With a maximum voltage rating of 100V, this non-automotive, non-PPAP compliant component is ideal for industrial and instrumentation applications.

GQ8A014870BAT Features

• Precision Performance: 0.1% tolerance and ±100ppm/°C TCR ensure accuracy in critical circuits.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic case enhances thermal and mechanical stability.
• Compact Design: 4.9mm (L) × 6.02mm (D) × 1.47mm (H) dimensions with ±0.1mm length/height tolerances for space-constrained layouts.
• High Reliability: Thin-film technology delivers low noise and long-term stability.
• Isolated Configuration: 8 independent resistors (ISOL design) for flexible circuit integration.
• Surface-Mount Ready: Gull-wing terminals with 0.64mm pitch for easy PCB assembly.

GQ8A014870BAT Applications

This resistor network excels in:

• Precision analog circuits (e.g., DACs, ADCs, voltage dividers).
• Medical instrumentation requiring stable, low-drift resistance.
• Industrial control systems where high accuracy and thermal resilience are critical.
• Test & measurement equipment demanding repeatable performance.
• Aerospace and defense electronics (though non-RoHS, it suits non-regulated environments).

Conclusion of GQ8A014870BAT

The GQ8A014870BAT stands out for its exceptional precision, rugged ceramic packaging, and isolated thin-film design, making it a top choice for engineers prioritizing accuracy and reliability. While not suited for automotive or RoHS-compliant projects, its high power density, tight tolerances, and wide operating temperature range make it indispensable in industrial, medical, and precision electronics. Its QSOP-16 form factor ensures compatibility with modern SMD processes, offering a superior alternative to bulkier or less stable resistor arrays.
