GS8B012870CT

GS8B012870CT Description

The GS8B012870CT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. Packaged in a 16-pin narrow SOIC (SOIC-C series), it features 15 bussed resistors with a 287Ω resistance value and an ultra-tight ±0.25% tolerance. Built with thin-film technology, this network ensures stable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C) while maintaining a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Its 0.05W (1/20) power rating per resistor and 0.8W total power rating make it suitable for low-power, high-density circuits. The 100V maximum voltage rating and gull-wing termination enhance reliability in surface-mount applications.

GS8B012870CT Features

• Precision & Stability: ±0.25% absolute tolerance and ±100ppm/°C TCR ensure accuracy in critical circuits.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic case and thin-film technology provide durability and long-term reliability.
• Space-Efficient: Compact 9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm SOIC package with 1.27mm terminal pitch optimizes PCB space.
• High Voltage Handling: Supports up to 100V, ideal for industrial and automotive (non-AEC-Q) applications.
• Bussed Configuration: Simplifies circuit design by interconnecting resistors, reducing component count.
• Wide Operating Range: Performs reliably from -55°C to +125°C (derated power above 70°C).

GS8B012870CT Applications
