GS4B017320CAT Description

The GS4B017320CAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. This 7-resistor bussed network features a 732Ω resistance value with an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance and ±0.05% ratio tolerance, ensuring reliable performance in precision circuits. Encased 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 easy surface-mount assembly. The thin-film technology provides stable operation across a wide temperature range (-70°C to +125°C), supported by a ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient. With a 0.4W total power rating (0.05W per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage rating, this network is engineered for efficiency and durability in harsh environments.
