GS8A011961GT Description

The GS8A011961GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values and reliable isolation. This 8-resistor network features a 1.96KΩ resistance per resistor with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring consistent performance across a wide temperature range of 70°C to 125°C. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it offers excellent thermal stability and durability, making it suitable for demanding environments. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design ensures minimal crosstalk between resistors, while the gull-wing termination facilitates easy surface-mount (SMD) assembly. With a maximum voltage rating of 100V and a total power dissipation of 0.8W (0.1W per resistor), this network is ideal for compact, high-density PCB designs.
