GS4A0242R2JGT Description

The GS4A0242R2JGT by TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values under varying thermal conditions. Housed in an 8-pin narrow SOIC package, this 4-resistor isolated network features 42.2Ω resistance per element with an absolute tolerance of ±5% and a ratio tolerance of ±2%. Its thin-film technology ensures low noise and high reliability, while the ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient guarantees minimal resistance drift across its operating range of 70°C to 125°C. With a power rating of 0.1W per resistor (0.4W total) and a maximum voltage rating of 100V, this component is engineered for demanding environments. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, and its ceramic case provides excellent thermal and mechanical stability.
