GS8A018251FT Description

The GS8A018251FT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor isolated network designed for precision applications. Encased in a ceramic SOIC-16 package, this thin-film resistor array offers an 8.25KΩ resistance per element with a tight 1% tolerance and ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Rated for 0.8W total power dissipation (0.1W per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage, it operates reliably across a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design ensure compatibility with automated PCB assembly processes. The ceramic substrate enhances thermal stability, making it suitable for demanding environments.

GS8A018251FT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers low noise and high stability for sensitive circuits.
• Isolated Circuit Design (ISOL): Each resistor is electrically independent, ideal for multi-channel isolation.
• Robust Ceramic Package: Superior heat dissipation and mechanical durability compared to polymer-based arrays.
• Compact Dimensions: 9.91mm (L) × 5.99mm (D) × 1.45mm (H) with tight tolerances (±0.1mm length/height).
• Automation-Friendly: 1.27mm terminal pitch and SOIC-16 gull-wing leads for seamless SMD placement.
• Non-Automotive/Non-PPAP: Suitable for industrial and commercial applications where PPAP compliance isn’t required.
