GS8A024221GT Description

The GS8A024221GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance values and low temperature coefficients. This 8-resistor isolated network features a 4.22KΩ resistance per resistor with a tight 2% tolerance and a ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable performance across a wide operating temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it offers excellent thermal stability and durability, making it suitable for demanding environments. With a 0.8W total power rating (0.1W per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage rating, this surface-mount (SMD) component is ideal for compact, high-density PCB designs.

GS8A024221GT Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers stable resistance with low noise and high accuracy.
• Isolated Resistor Network (ISOL): Each resistor operates independently, reducing crosstalk in sensitive circuits.
• Ceramic SOIC Package: Enhances thermal performance and mechanical robustness.
• Gull Wing Termination: Ensures reliable solder joints for surface-mount assembly.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates reliably from -70°C to +125°C, with derated power up to 125°C.
• Low TCR (±50ppm/°C): Minimizes resistance drift under temperature fluctuations.
• Compact Dimensions: 9.91mm (L) x 5.99mm (D) x 1.45mm (H) with tight tolerances for space-constrained designs.
