GS8A026492CT

GS8A026492CT Description

The GS8A026492CT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision thin-film resistor network designed for demanding isolation and signal conditioning applications. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it features 8 isolated resistors with a tight tolerance of ±0.25% and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stable performance across a wide operating temperature range (70°C to 125°C). Each resistor offers 64.9kΩ resistance with a 0.1W (1/10W) power rating per element and a total power dissipation of 0.8W. The 100V maximum voltage rating and gull-wing SMD termination make it suitable for automated assembly processes.
