GS8A033240CBT Description

The GS8A033240CBT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision 8-resistor network designed for demanding isolation and signal conditioning applications. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC (SOIC-C) ceramic package, it features isolated thin-film resistors with a tight tolerance of ±0.25% and an ultra-stable ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Each resistor offers 324Ω resistance, rated for 0.1W (1/10W) per element and 0.8W total power dissipation. The device operates across a wide temperature range (-70°C to +125°C), making it suitable for harsh environments. Its 100V maximum voltage rating and gull-wing termination ensure reliable surface-mount performance in compact PCB designs.

GS8A033240CBT Features

• Precision Performance: ±0.25% absolute tolerance and ±0.1% ratio tolerance for matched resistance pairs.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic case (SOIC package) enhances thermal stability and durability.
• High-Temperature Operation: Derated power up to 125°C, ideal for industrial and automotive-adjacent applications.
• Low TCR: ±25ppm/°C ensures minimal resistance drift over temperature fluctuations.
• Isolated Design: Independent resistors reduce crosstalk, critical for analog signal integrity.
• Compact Footprint: 9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm dimensions with ±0.1mm length/height tolerances for high-density layouts.
