GS8A011823CAT Description

The GS8A011823CAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding applications requiring stable performance under varying conditions. This 16-pin narrow SOIC package features 8 isolated thin-film resistors, each with a resistance value of 182KΩ and an absolute tolerance of ±0.25%, ensuring exceptional accuracy. The device operates within a temperature range of 70°C to 125°C and offers a low temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C, minimizing resistance drift. With a power rating of 0.1W per resistor (0.8W total) and a maximum voltage rating of 100V, it is engineered for reliability in precision circuits. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy integration into compact PCB layouts.
