GS8A031801CT Description

The GS8A031801CT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding applications requiring stable performance across a wide temperature range. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, this 8-resistor isolated network features 1.8KΩ resistance per element with an ultra-tight ±0.25% tolerance and a low ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Its thin-film technology ensures excellent long-term stability and low noise, while the ceramic case provides superior thermal and mechanical durability. Rated for 0.1W per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage, it operates reliably from 70°C to 125°C with derated power.

GS8A031801CT Features

• High Precision: ±0.25% absolute tolerance for critical signal conditioning.
• Low TCR: ±25ppm/°C ensures minimal resistance drift under thermal stress.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic SOIC package with gull-wing terminals for high-reliability surface mounting.
• Isolated Design: Eight independent resistors (ISOL circuit designator) for flexible circuit configurations.
• Wide Operating Range: Supports -55°C to +125°C (full power up to +70°C).
• Compact Dimensions: 9.91mm (L) × 5.99mm (D) × 1.45mm (H) with tight tolerances (±0.1mm height/length).

GS8A031801CT Applications
