GQCB013901CAT

GQCB013901CAT Description

The GQCB013901CAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision thin-film resistor network designed for demanding applications requiring tight tolerances and stable performance. This 23-resistor array features a 3.9K Ohm resistance per element with an exceptional ±0.25% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring minimal drift across operating conditions. Encased in a 24-pin QSOP (Ceramic) package, it offers 1W total power dissipation (0.05W per resistor) and operates reliably within a -70°C to +125°C temperature range. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate automated assembly, while the 100V maximum voltage rating enhances versatility in high-voltage circuits.
