GS8A012800GGT Description

The GS8A012800GGT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin film network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance and thermal performance. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it offers a 280Ω resistance per resistor with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable operation across a 70°C to 125°C derated power range. The 0.8W total power rating (0.1W per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for demanding circuits. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, while the ceramic case enhances durability and thermal dissipation.
