GS8A012942CT Description

The GS8A012942CT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. This 16-pin narrow SOIC package features 8 isolated thin-film resistors, each with a 29.4KΩ resistance and an exceptional ±0.25% tolerance. The device operates within a wide temperature range of 70°C to 125°C (derated) and delivers a total power rating of 0.8W (0.1W per resistor). Its ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient ensures stable performance under thermal stress, while the 100V maximum voltage rating makes it suitable for high-voltage circuits. The SOIC-C series construction offers robust ceramic packaging with gull-wing terminations for reliable surface-mount assembly.
