GS8A0168R1FFT

GS8A0168R1FFT Description

The GS8A0168R1FFT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor isolated network in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, designed for precision applications requiring stable thin-film resistance. Built with ceramic substrate and gull-wing terminations, it offers excellent thermal stability with a ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 1% absolute tolerance. Each resistor provides 68.1Ω resistance at 0.1W (1/10W) power rating per element, totaling 0.8W for the network. Its 100V maximum voltage rating and 125°C maximum operating temperature make it suitable for demanding environments. The SOIC-C series construction ensures robust mechanical integrity, with tight dimensional tolerances (±0.1mm height, ±0.2mm depth).

GS8A0168R1FFT Features

• Isolated Resistor Network: 8 independent resistors, ideal for signal isolation or pull-up/down configurations.
• Thin-Film Technology: Delivers low noise, high stability, and tight ±1% ratio tolerance.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates from 70°C to 125°C with derated power, ensuring reliability in thermal stress.
• Compact & Robust: 9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm ceramic SOIC package with gull-wing leads for secure surface mounting.
• Non-Automotive, Non-PPAP: Suitable for industrial and commercial applications where PPAP compliance isn’t required.
