GS4A0286R6GCT Description

The GS4A0286R6GCT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications. This 8-pin narrow SOIC package features four isolated thin-film resistors, each with a resistance value of 86.6Ω and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance. The device operates over a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C, with a derated power capability up to 125°C, ensuring reliability in demanding environments. Its ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient and ±0.25% ratio tolerance make it ideal for applications requiring stable and matched resistance values. The SOIC-C series construction provides robust mechanical and thermal performance, while the gull-wing termination ensures compatibility with standard surface-mount assembly processes.
