GS8A032871GT Description

The GS8A032871GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision 8-resistor isolated network in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, designed for demanding surface-mount applications. This ceramic-based thin-film resistor network offers a 2.87KΩ resistance per element with a tight ±2% absolute tolerance and an ultra-stable ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Its isolated circuit design (ISOL) ensures independent resistor performance, making it ideal for precision analog and digital circuits. The device operates across a wide temperature range (-70°C to +125°C) with a derated power handling of 0.1W per resistor (0.8W total) and a 100V maximum voltage rating. Encased in a rectangular SOIC package (9.91mm x 5.99mm x 1.45mm), it features gull-wing terminations for reliable PCB mounting.
