GS8A031022CAT

GS8A031022CAT Description

The GS8A031022CAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. This 16-pin narrow SOIC package features 8 isolated thin-film resistors, each with a 10.2KΩ resistance and an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance (±0.05% ratio tolerance). The device operates over a wide temperature range of 70°C to 125°C with a low temperature coefficient of ±25ppm/°C, ensuring stability in varying environmental conditions. Encased in a rectangular ceramic SOIC package, it offers 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and a maximum voltage rating of 100V, making it suitable for precision analog and digital circuits.
