GQ8A0397R6JFT Description

The GQ8A0397R6JFT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin film network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values and low temperature coefficients. Encased in a ceramic QSOP package, this 16-pin surface-mount device (SMD) offers a 97.6 Ω resistance per resistor with a 5% tolerance and a ±25 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C). With a 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating and 0.1W per resistor, it supports moderate power dissipation while maintaining isolation between resistors. The gull-wing termination and 0.64 mm terminal pitch facilitate easy PCB integration.

GQ8A0397R6JFT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers stable resistance with low noise and high accuracy.
• Isolated Resistor Network: Each of the 8 resistors is electrically isolated, ideal for independent signal conditioning.
• Robust Ceramic Package: Enhances thermal stability and durability in harsh environments.
• Wide Operating Range: Rated for -55°C to +125°C, suitable for industrial and automotive-grade applications (though not PPAP/automotive certified).
• High Voltage Tolerance: Supports up to 100V, making it versatile for analog and digital circuits.
• Compact QSOP-16 Form Factor: 4.9 mm × 6.02 mm × 1.47 mm dimensions with tight tolerances (±0.1 mm height/length) save board space.
