GS8A021620FFT

GS8A021620FFT Description

The GS8A021620FFT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin film network in a 16-pin SOIC package, designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance and isolation. With a 162Ω resistance value and tight 1% tolerance, this ceramic-based network ensures reliable performance in demanding environments. Its isolated (ISOL) circuit design provides independent resistor functionality, while the thin film technology delivers excellent thermal stability (±50ppm/°C) and low noise. Rated for 0.1W per resistor (0.8W total) and operating up to 125°C, it suits power-sensitive designs. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount (SMD) configuration enable easy PCB integration.

GS8A021620FFT Features

• Precision Resistance: 162Ω ±1% tolerance for accurate signal conditioning.
• High-Temperature Stability: ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient ensures minimal drift.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic case with SOIC-16 package (9.91mm x 5.99mm x 1.45mm) for durability.
• Isolated Design: Independent resistors (ISOL) prevent cross-talk in multi-channel circuits.
• Wide Voltage Range: Supports up to 100V, ideal for industrial and telecom applications.
• Surface-Mount Ready: Gull-wing terminals with 1.27mm pitch for automated assembly.
• Derated Power Handling: Maintains performance from 70°C to 125°C.
