GS8A012800DT

GS8A012800DT Description

The GS8A012800DT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding surface-mount applications. This 16-pin narrow SOIC package features 8 isolated thin-film resistors, each with a 280Ω resistance and an absolute tolerance of ±0.5%. The device operates over a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C, with a derated power capability up to 125°C. Its ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient ensures stable performance in varying thermal conditions. The SOIC-C series construction offers 0.1W (1/10) power rating per resistor, totaling 0.8W for the network, and supports a maximum voltage rating of 100V. Encased in a rectangular ceramic package, it provides excellent durability and thermal stability for precision circuits.
