GS4A0368R1GCT Description

The GS4A0368R1GCT 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 68.1Ω and an absolute tolerance of ±2%. The device operates within a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C, ensuring reliability in demanding environments. With a low temperature coefficient of ±25ppm/°C and a ratio tolerance of ±0.25%, it delivers exceptional stability and accuracy. The SOIC-C series construction provides robust mechanical integrity, while the gull-wing termination facilitates easy surface-mount assembly. Rated for 100V maximum voltage and 0.1W power dissipation per resistor, it is ideal for precision analog and digital circuits.
