GS8A016490CT

GS8A016490CT Description

The GS8A016490CT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, this device features 8 isolated thin-film resistors, each with a resistance value of 649Ω and an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance. The network operates over a wide temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, with derated power handling up to 125°C. Its ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient ensures stable performance in varying thermal conditions. The SOIC-C series construction offers robust surface-mount compatibility, with gull-wing termination for reliable PCB integration. With a maximum voltage rating of 100V and a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total), this network is engineered for precision and durability in compact designs.

GS8A016490CT Features

• High Precision: ±0.25% tolerance and ±100ppm/°C TCR for critical accuracy.
• Isolated Resistors: 8 independent thin-film elements in a single package, reducing board space.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic case with SOIC-16 footprint (9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm) and ±0.1mm dimensional tolerances.
• Wide Operating Range: -55°C to +125°C, suitable for industrial and automotive environments (non-AECQ).
• Surface-Mount Ready: Gull-wing terminals with 1.27mm pitch for automated assembly.
• Low Power Dissipation: 0.1W per resistor, ideal for signal conditioning and voltage division.
