GS4A0173R2GGT

GS4A0173R2GGT Description

The GS4A0173R2GGT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values and reliable isolation. This 8-pin narrow SOIC package features four isolated thin-film resistors, each with a 73.2Ω resistance and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance. The device operates over a wide temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, with a derated power range of 70°C to 125°C, ensuring consistent performance in demanding environments. Its ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient minimizes resistance drift, making it suitable for precision circuits. The SOIC-C series construction provides excellent thermal and mechanical stability, while the gull-wing termination facilitates easy surface-mount assembly.
