GS8A023741FAT Description

The GS8A023741FAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision 8-resistor isolated network in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, designed for demanding surface-mount applications. Featuring 3.74KΩ thin-film resistors with a tight ±1% absolute tolerance and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, this ceramic-based network ensures stable performance across a 70°C to 125°C derated power range. Its isolated circuit design (per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for precision analog and signal conditioning circuits. The SOIC-C series construction offers robust mechanical stability with a compact footprint (9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm) and gull-wing termination for reliable PCB mounting.

GS8A023741FAT Features

• High Precision: ±1% tolerance and ±0.05% ratio tolerance for critical matching applications.
• Thermal Stability: ±50ppm/°C TCR ensures minimal drift in varying environments.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic substrate with 0.1W (1/10) power rating per resistor (0.8W total).
• Isolated Design: Independent resistors (no common node) for flexible circuit integration.
• Surface-Mount Ready: 16-pin SOIC with 1.27mm pitch for automated assembly compatibility.
• Wide Operating Range: -55°C to +125°C (derated above 70°C) for industrial and automotive-grade reliability (note: non-automotive PPAP).

GS8A023741FAT Applications

• Precision Voltage Dividers: Ideal for ADC/DAC reference circuits due to low ratio tolerance.
