GS8A012800GT Description

The GS8A012800GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin-film network designed for precision applications. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it features 280Ω resistance per element with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across a wide -70°C to +125°C operating range. The 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for demanding circuits. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design (9.91mm x 5.99mm x 1.45mm) facilitate compact PCB integration. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design and ceramic case enhance thermal and electrical isolation, ideal for noise-sensitive environments.

GS8A012800GT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers stable performance with ±100ppm/°C TCR and 2% tolerance.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic SOIC package ensures durability and excellent heat dissipation.
• High-Density Integration: 8 resistors in a 16-pin SOIC, saving board space versus discrete components.
• Wide Operating Range: Functions reliably from -70°C to +125°C, even at derated power.
• Surface-Mount Ready: Gull-wing leads and 1.27mm pitch simplify automated assembly.
