GS8A031800JGT Description

The GS8A031800JGT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications requiring stable resistance and low thermal drift. This 8-resistor isolated network features a 180Ω resistance per element with a 5% tolerance and a ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable performance across a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC ceramic package, it offers 0.8W total power dissipation (0.1W per resistor) and a 100V maximum voltage rating, making it suitable for demanding industrial and commercial circuits. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, while its ceramic case enhances thermal and mechanical stability.
