GS8A021583FAT Description

The GS8A021583FAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision 8-resistor isolated network designed for demanding electronic applications. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC ceramic package, it features 158KΩ thin-film resistors with an absolute tolerance of ±1% and an exceptional ratio tolerance of ±0.05%. The device operates over a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C) with a ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability in fluctuating environments. Its 100V maximum voltage rating and 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) make it suitable for precision analog and digital circuits. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration.
