GS8A012741GT

GS8A012741GT Description

The GS8A012741GT 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 2.74KΩ resistance per element with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring consistent performance across a wide operating temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it offers 0.1W power dissipation per resistor (0.8W total) and a 100V maximum voltage rating, making it suitable for demanding circuits. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, while its isolated (ISOL) circuit design enhances signal integrity in multi-channel systems.

GS8A012741GT Features
