GS8A021652BT Description

The GS8A021652BT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision thin-film resistor network designed for demanding isolation and signal conditioning applications. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it features 8 isolated resistors with a tight tolerance of ±0.1% and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across a wide operating range of -70°C to +125°C. Each resistor offers 16.5KΩ resistance with a 0.1W power rating per element (0.8W total), supporting 100V maximum voltage. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate automated assembly, while the ceramic case enhances thermal and mechanical reliability.
