GS8A021132FT

GS8A021132FT Description

The GS8A021132FT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications. This 8-resistor isolated network features a 11.3KΩ resistance value per resistor with a tight 1% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across a wide operating temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it offers 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and a 100V maximum voltage rating, making it suitable for demanding environments. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, while its ceramic case enhances thermal and mechanical durability.

GS8A021132FT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers high accuracy (±1%) and low TCR (±50ppm/°C) for stable performance.
• Isolated Resistor Network (ISOL): Each resistor operates independently, reducing crosstalk in sensitive circuits.
• Robust Ceramic Package: Ensures superior thermal dissipation and mechanical strength compared to plastic alternatives.
• High Power Handling: 0.8W total power rating (0.1W per resistor) derated up to 125°C.
• Surface-Mount Gull Wing Terminals: Compatible with automated assembly processes for high-volume production.
• Wide Operating Range: Functions reliably from -70°C to +125°C, ideal for industrial and automotive-grade applications (though not PPAP/automotive certified).
