GS8A036651CAT Description

The GS8A036651CAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. This 16-pin narrow SOIC device features 8 isolated thin-film resistors, each with a resistance value of 6.65 kΩ and an absolute tolerance of ±0.25%, ensuring exceptional accuracy. The network operates over a wide temperature range of 70°C to 125°C with a low temperature coefficient of ±25 ppm/°C, making it ideal for stable performance in varying environmental conditions. Encased in a rectangular ceramic SOIC package, it offers 0.1W power rating per resistor (0.8W total) and a maximum voltage rating of 100V, suitable for high-reliability circuits.
