GQ8B022701FCT Description

The GQ8B022701FCT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications. This 16-pin QSOP (Quarter Small Outline Package) device integrates 15 resistors, each with a 2.7KΩ resistance and a tight 1% tolerance, ensuring consistent performance in critical circuits. Encased in a ceramic package, it offers superior thermal stability and durability, with a maximum operating temperature of 125°C and a derated power range of 70°C to 125°C. The 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating (0.05W per resistor) and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient make it ideal for environments requiring low drift and high reliability.

GQ8B022701FCT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers low noise and high stability for sensitive analog/digital circuits.
• Ceramic Case Style: Enhances thermal dissipation and mechanical robustness.
• BUS Circuit Designator: Optimized for bus termination and voltage division applications.
• Gull Wing Termination: Facilitates surface-mount (SMD) assembly with a 0.64mm terminal pitch for compact PCB layouts.
• Wide Voltage Rating: Supports up to 100V, suitable for industrial and automotive-grade systems (though not PPAP/automotive-certified).
• Tight Tolerances: ±0.1mm height/length and ±0.2mm depth tolerances ensure consistent footprint alignment.
• Non-RoHS Compliance: Preferred for legacy or specialized systems requiring traditional materials.
