GS8A021961CBT

GS8A021961CBT Description

The GS8A021961CBT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision thin-film resistor network designed for demanding isolation and signal conditioning applications. This 8-resistor network features a 1.96KΩ resistance value per resistor with an ultra-tight ±0.25% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C). Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it offers 0.8W total power dissipation (0.1W per resistor) and a 100V maximum voltage rating, making it suitable for high-reliability circuits. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, while its isolated (ISOL) circuit design minimizes crosstalk in multi-channel systems.

GS8A021961CBT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers high accuracy (±0.25%) and low TCR (±50ppm/°C) for stable operation.
• Robust Ceramic SOIC Package: Enhances thermal performance and durability in harsh environments.
• Isolated Resistor Network (ISOL): Reduces interference in sensitive analog/digital circuits.
• High Power Handling: 0.8W total (0.1W per resistor) with derating up to 125°C.
• Surface-Mount Gull Wing Terminals: Ensures reliable solder joints and compatibility with automated assembly.
• Non-Automotive, Non-PPAP: Ideal for industrial, medical, and instrumentation applications.
