GS8A032612FAT

GS8A032612FAT Description

The GS8A032612FAT 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 26.1KΩ thin-film resistors with an absolute tolerance of ±1% and a ratio tolerance of ±0.05%, ensuring exceptional accuracy. The device operates over a wide temperature range (-70°C to +125°C) with a low ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, making it ideal for stable performance in varying environmental conditions. With a maximum voltage rating of 100V and a power rating of 0.1W per resistor (0.8W total), it balances compactness with reliability. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration.

GS8A032612FAT Features

• Isolated Resistor Network: 8 independent resistors in a single package, reducing board space and improving signal integrity.
• High Precision: ±1% absolute tolerance and ±0.05% ratio tolerance for critical analog circuits.
• Stable Performance: Low ±25ppm/°C TCR ensures minimal resistance drift across temperatures.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic SOIC case enhances thermal and mechanical durability.
• Surface-Mount Ready: Gull-wing leads (1.27mm pitch) and compact dimensions (9.91mm x 5.99mm x 1.45mm) suit high-density layouts.
• Wide Operating Range: Functions reliably from -70°C to +125°C, derated for power above 70°C.
