GS8A023741GT

GS8A023741GT Description

The GS8A023741GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values and low thermal drift. This 8-resistor network features an isolated (ISOL) circuit design, ensuring independent resistor functionality within a compact 16-pin SOIC package. With a 3.74KΩ resistance per resistor, a tight 2% tolerance, and a ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, it delivers exceptional accuracy across a wide operating temperature range of 70°C to 125°C. The ceramic case style and gull-wing termination make it ideal for surface-mount (SMD) applications, while its 0.8W total power rating (0.1W per resistor) ensures reliable performance in demanding circuits.

GS8A023741GT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Ensures low noise and high stability.
• Isolated Resistor Design (ISOL): Each of the 8 resistors operates independently, reducing crosstalk.
• Wide Temperature Range: Derated power operation up to 125°C for harsh environments.
• High Voltage Rating: Supports up to 100V, suitable for industrial and automotive systems (though not PPAP/automotive certified).
• Robust Construction: Ceramic substrate and SOIC package offer mechanical durability and thermal resilience.
• Tight Tolerances: ±0.1mm length/height tolerances and ±0.2mm depth tolerance ensure consistent PCB fit.
• Non-RoHS Compliant: May be preferred for legacy or specialized applications requiring non-compliant materials.
