GS8A032321FT

GS8A032321FT Description

The GS8A032321FT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision 8-resistor isolated network designed for demanding electronic applications. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC ceramic package, it features 2.32KΩ thin-film resistors with a tight ±1% tolerance and a low ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across a wide operating range (70°C to 125°C). The isolated circuit design (ISOL) allows independent resistor operation, making it ideal for signal conditioning and voltage division. With a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage rating, it balances performance and reliability in compact designs. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount (SOIC) package facilitate automated assembly, while its 9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm dimensions suit space-constrained PCBs.
