GS7B031802GCT Description

The GS7B031802GCT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. This 14-pin Narrow SOIC device features 13 bussed resistors, each with a 18KΩ resistance and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance, ensuring reliable performance in precision 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 (8.66mm 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 0.7W total power dissipation, it operates reliably across a 70°C to 125°C derated power range, with a 125°C maximum operating temperature.
