GS8B013242BT

GS8B013242BT Description

The GS8B013242BT 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 32.4KΩ resistance value and an exceptional ±0.1% absolute tolerance. Built using thin-film technology, this network ensures stable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C) with 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 precision circuits requiring minimal power dissipation. The 100V maximum voltage rating and gull-wing termination further enhance its reliability in surface-mount applications.
