GS8A031182CAT Description

The GS8A031182CAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding applications requiring stable performance under varying conditions. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, this 8-resistor isolated network features thin-film technology with a ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring minimal resistance drift. Each resistor offers an 11.8KΩ value with an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance and ±0.05% ratio tolerance, making it ideal for precision analog circuits. The SOIC-C series construction provides robust thermal and mechanical stability, with a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and a 100V maximum voltage rating. Its surface-mount gull-wing termination ensures reliable PCB integration.
