GS8B011620GGT Description

The GS8B011620GGT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications. This 16-pin narrow SOIC (SOIC-C series) device integrates 15 bussed resistors with a 162Ω resistance value and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance. Built using thin-film technology, it delivers excellent stability with a ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient. The network operates across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C @ derated power) and withstands up to 125°C maximum operating temperature. Its 0.05W (1/20) power rating per resistor and 0.8W total power rating ensure reliable performance in demanding circuits. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, while the ceramic case enhances durability and thermal management.
