GS8A0229R4FFT

GS8A0229R4FFT Description

The GS8A0229R4FFT 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 features 29.4Ω resistance per resistor with a tight 1% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across a wide operating temperature range of 70°C to 125°C. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design allows independent resistor operation, while the 0.1W (1/10) 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) compatibility facilitate easy PCB integration.
