GQ8A0256R2FCT Description

The GQ8A0256R2FCT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin film network designed for precision applications. Housed in a 16-pin QSOP ceramic package, it offers 56.2Ω resistance per resistor with a tight 1% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stable performance across a wide -70°C to +125°C operating range. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design allows independent resistor operation, making it ideal for complex signal conditioning. With a 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating (0.1W per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage rating, it balances power handling and compact surface-mount (SMD) form factor (4.9mm x 6.02mm x 1.47mm).
