GS8A021650GT

GS8A021650GT Description

The GS8A021650GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin film network designed for precision applications. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it offers 165Ω resistance per element with a tight 2% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across operating temperatures of 70°C to 125°C. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design provides independent resistors, while the 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for demanding environments. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount (SMD) design facilitate automated assembly.

GS8A021650GT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers low noise and high accuracy (±50ppm/°C) for signal conditioning.
• Robust Ceramic Package: Enhances thermal performance and durability in harsh conditions.
• Isolated Resistors: Independent 165Ω elements (8 total) prevent cross-talk in multi-channel circuits.
• Compact SOIC-16 Footprint: 9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm with ±0.1mm dimensional tolerances for space-constrained PCBs.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates reliably from 70°C to 125°C with derated power.
• Automation-Friendly: Gull-wing leads and tube packaging streamline high-volume production.

GS8A021650GT Applications

Ideal for:

• Industrial Control Systems: Precision voltage dividers, feedback networks in PLCs.
• Test & Measurement Equipment: Calibration circuits, sensor interfaces requiring stable resistance.
• Medical Electronics: Isolated signal paths in diagnostic devices.
• Telecom Infrastructure: Line termination, impedance matching in high-frequency modules.
• Power Management: Current sensing, load balancing in DC-DC converters.

Conclusion of GS8A021650GT

The GS8A021650GT excels in applications demanding high precision, thermal stability, and compactness. Its ceramic SOIC package, isolated thin film resistors, and wide operating range distinguish it from polymer-based networks. While not RoHS-compliant, it remains a top choice for industrial and telecom designs where reliability outweighs regulatory constraints. Engineers benefit from its repeatable performance, ease of integration, and robust construction, making it a versatile solution for critical analog circuits.
