GS8A013742GFT Description

The GS8A013742GFT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values and reliable isolation. This 8-resistor network features a 37.4KΩ resistance per element with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring consistent performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C). Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it offers 0.8W total power dissipation (0.1W per resistor) and a 100V maximum voltage rating, making it suitable for demanding circuits. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, while its isolated (ISOL) circuit design enhances signal integrity in multi-channel systems.
