GS4B031602GDT Description

The GS4B031602GDT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications. This 8-pin Narrow SOIC device features 7 bussed resistors with a 16KΩ resistance value and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance, ensuring reliable performance in demanding circuits. Built with thin-film technology, it offers excellent stability with a low ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, making it ideal for environments with fluctuating temperatures. The SOIC package (4.9mm x 5.99mm x 1.45mm) provides a compact footprint, while the gull-wing termination ensures secure surface mounting. Rated for 100V maximum voltage and 0.4W total power dissipation, it operates reliably within a 70°C to 125°C derated power range, with a 125°C maximum operating temperature.
