GS8A018060FT Description

The GS8A018060FT 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 806Ω resistance per resistor with a tight 1% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across a wide operating temperature range of 70°C to 125°C. With a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage rating, this isolated (ISOL) configuration resistor network is ideal for surface-mount (SMD) designs requiring reliable performance in demanding environments. The gull-wing termination and 1.27mm terminal pitch facilitate easy PCB integration.
