GS8A013301GT

GS8A013301GT Description

The GS8A013301GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin-film network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance characteristics. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, this isolated network offers a 3.3KΩ resistance per resistor with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C). With a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and a 100V maximum voltage rating, it is engineered for surface-mount applications where space efficiency and durability are critical. The gull-wing termination and ceramic case provide robust mechanical and thermal stability, making it suitable for demanding environments.

GS8A013301GT Features

• Precision Thin-Film Technology: Delivers excellent stability and low noise.
• High Power Handling: 0.8W total power dissipation (0.1W per resistor) in a compact 9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm footprint.
• Wide Operating Range: Rated for -55°C to +125°C, with derated power up to 125°C.
• Isolated Design (ISOL): Each resistor is electrically independent, ideal for multi-channel circuits.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic substrate ensures superior thermal management and mechanical strength compared to polymer-based networks.
• Surface-Mount Gull Wing Terminals: Facilitates automated PCB assembly with a 1.27mm pitch.
