GS8A031602GFT Description

The GS8A031602GFT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision 8-resistor network designed for demanding isolation and signal conditioning applications. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC ceramic package, it features isolated thin-film resistors with a 16KΩ resistance value and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance (±1% ratio tolerance). The device operates over a wide temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, with a derated power range of 70°C to 125°C, ensuring stability in harsh environments. Its ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for precision analog circuits. The 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and surface-mount gull-wing termination facilitate integration into compact PCB designs.
