GS8A021400GT Description

The GS8A021400GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin film network designed for precision applications. Encased in a ceramic SOIC-16 package, it offers 140Ω resistance per resistor with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across a wide operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. Rated for 0.1W per resistor (0.8W total), it supports 100V maximum voltage and features gull-wing SMD termination for reliable surface-mount assembly. Its isolated (ISOL) circuit design and ceramic construction enhance thermal and electrical performance, making it ideal for harsh environments.
