GS8A0284R5FCT Description

The GS8A0284R5FCT 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 offers an 84.5Ω 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 provides independent resistors, making it ideal for applications requiring signal isolation. With a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and a maximum voltage rating of 100V, this network balances power handling and compactness in a surface-mount (SMD) gull-wing termination format.
