GQCA018871JFT Description

The GQCA018871JFT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values under varying thermal conditions. This 24-pin QSOP (Quarter Small Outline Package) device features 12 isolated resistors, each with a 8.87KΩ resistance value and a 5% tolerance, ensuring reliable performance in demanding circuits. Encased in a ceramic package, it offers superior thermal stability and mechanical robustness, with a maximum operating temperature of 125°C. The gull-wing termination facilitates easy surface-mount (SMD) assembly, while the ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient ensures minimal resistance drift across its 70°C to 125°C derated power range.
