GQ8A0380R6GT Description

The GQ8A0380R6GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin film network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values and tight tolerances. Housed in a 16-pin QSOP ceramic package, this surface-mount device features 80.6Ω resistance per element with a 2% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable performance across a 70°C to 125°C operating range. Its isolated (ISOL) circuit design allows independent resistor functionality, making it ideal for complex circuit configurations. With a 0.75W total power rating (0.1W per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage rating, this network balances power handling with compact dimensions (4.9mm x 6.02mm x 1.47mm).

GQ8A0380R6GT Features

• Thin Film Technology: Delivers superior stability, low noise, and precise resistance values compared to thick-film alternatives.
• Ceramic QSOP Package: Enhances thermal performance and mechanical durability in harsh environments.
• Gull Wing Termination: Facilitates reliable surface-mount assembly and solder joint integrity.
• Isolated Resistors: Enables flexible circuit design without shared connections, reducing crosstalk.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates reliably from -55°C to +125°C (derated above 70°C).
