GS8A021802GGT Description

The GS8A021802GGT 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 an 18K Ohm resistance per resistor with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Rated for 0.8W total power dissipation (0.1W per resistor), it operates reliably across a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C, making it suitable for demanding environments. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design ensures minimal crosstalk between resistors, while the gull-wing termination facilitates robust surface-mount (SMD) assembly. Packaged in a tube, this component is ideal for automated PCB production.
