GQCA033241GT Description

The GQCA033241GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance and low thermal drift. This 24-pin QSOP (Quarter Small Outline Package) device features 12 isolated resistors, each with a 3.24KΩ resistance value, 2% tolerance, and a ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient. 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 1W total power rating (0.1W per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for demanding circuits. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design ensure reliable PCB integration.

GQCA033241GT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers low noise and high accuracy (±25ppm/°C thermal stability).
• Isolated Resistor Network (ISOL): 12 independent resistors for flexible circuit design.
• Robust Ceramic Case: Enhances thermal performance and mechanical strength.
• High Power Handling: 1W total (0.1W per resistor) with derating up to 125°C.
• Compact QSOP Package: Space-saving 8.66mm × 6.02mm × 1.47mm footprint (±0.1mm height tolerance).
• Automotive-Grade Alternatives: While not PPAP or automotive-certified, its 125°C rating suits industrial and telecom applications.
• Non-RoHS Compliant: Ideal for legacy or specialized systems requiring leaded components.
