GQ8A021200GCT Description

The GQ8A021200GCT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications. This 8-resistor isolated network features a 120 Ohm resistance value with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C). Housed in a 16-pin QSOP ceramic package, it offers excellent thermal stability and durability. The 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating (0.1W per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for demanding circuits. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration.

GQ8A021200GCT Features

• High Precision: Thin-film technology ensures low tolerance (±2%) and minimal TCR (±50ppm/°C).
• Robust Construction: Ceramic case enhances thermal and mechanical reliability.
• Compact & Durable: 4.9mm x 6.02mm x 1.47mm dimensions with tight tolerances (±0.1mm length/height, ±0.2mm depth).
• Isolated Design: Independent resistors (ISOL configuration) for flexible circuit design.
• Wide Operating Range: Rated for -55°C to +125°C, derated up to 125°C.
• Automated Assembly Friendly: 0.64mm terminal pitch and gull-wing leads optimize SMD placement.
