GS8A016811GAT Description

The GS8A016811GAT 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 6.81KΩ resistance per resistor with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across a wide operating temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design allows each resistor to function independently, making it ideal for signal conditioning and voltage division. With a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage rating, this component is engineered for reliability in demanding environments. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount (SMD) compatibility facilitate easy PCB integration.
