GS8A011542CAT Description

The GS8A011542CAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. This 16-pin narrow SOIC device features 8 isolated thin-film resistors, each with a 15.4KΩ resistance and an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance (±0.05% ratio tolerance). Encased in a robust ceramic SOIC package, it offers superior thermal stability with a ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient and operates reliably across a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. With a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage rating, this network is engineered for precision and durability in surface-mount designs.
