GS8A012212CAT

GS8A012212CAT Description

The GS8A012212CAT 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 22.1kΩ resistance and an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance (with ±0.05% ratio tolerance). Encased in a robust rectangular 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, it is engineered for precision signal conditioning, voltage division, and feedback circuits in industrial and instrumentation systems.
