GS8A033240GT

GS8A033240GT Description

The GS8A033240GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications. This 16-pin narrow SOIC device features 8 isolated thin-film resistors, each with a 324Ω resistance and a tight ±2% tolerance. Its ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient ensures stable performance across a wide operating temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. The SOIC package (9.91mm x 5.99mm x 1.45mm) offers a compact footprint with gull-wing terminations for reliable surface-mount assembly. With a 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and 100V maximum voltage rating, it balances power handling and space efficiency. The ceramic case provides excellent thermal and mechanical stability, making it suitable for demanding environments.
