GS4A023600FT

GS4A023600FT Description

The GS4A023600FT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values and reliable isolation. This 4-resistor isolated network features a 360Ω resistance per element with a tight ±1% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring minimal drift across operating conditions. Housed in an 8-pin narrow SOIC (SOIC-C) package, it offers a compact footprint (4.9mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm) with gull-wing terminations for robust surface-mount assembly. The thin-film technology delivers superior accuracy and power handling (0.1W per resistor, 0.4W total), while the ceramic case enhances thermal stability up to 125°C.

GS4A023600FT Features

• Isolated Circuit Design: Each of the 4 resistors is electrically isolated, ideal for signal separation or multi-channel applications.
• High Precision: ±1% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C TCR ensure consistent performance in varying environments.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic substrate and SOIC package provide mechanical strength and heat dissipation.
• Wide Voltage Rating: Supports up to 100V, suitable for industrial and instrumentation circuits.
• Surface-Mount Ready: Gull-wing leads (1.27mm pitch) facilitate automated PCB assembly.
• Extended Temperature Range: Operates from 70°C to 125°C with derated power, ensuring reliability in harsh conditions.

GS4A023600FT Applications
