GS8A0228R0FCT Description

The GS8A0228R0FCT 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 28Ω resistance per resistor with a tight 1% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across operating temperatures of -70°C to +125°C. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design eliminates crosstalk between resistors, making it ideal for sensitive analog/digital systems. With a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage rating, it balances power handling and compactness in a 9.91mm x 5.99mm x 1.45mm SMD footprint.

GS8A0228R0FCT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers low noise and high accuracy (±1%) for critical signal conditioning.
• Ceramic SOIC Package: Enhances thermal performance and durability in harsh environments.
• Isolated Resistors (ISOL): Independent resistors prevent interference, suitable for multi-channel designs.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates reliably from -70°C to +125°C with derated power up to 125°C.
