GS8A011372GT Description

The GS8A011372GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin film network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance characteristics. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it features 13.7KΩ resistance per resistor with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable performance across a -70°C to +125°C operating range. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design allows independent resistor functionality, while the 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for demanding environments. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount (SMD) design facilitate easy PCB integration.
