GS8B013402GCT Description

The GS8B013402GCT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications in demanding electronic circuits. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, this bussed network integrates 15 resistors with a 34KΩ resistance value and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance, ensuring reliable signal integrity. Its thin-film technology delivers excellent stability with a ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, making it suitable for environments with fluctuating thermal conditions. The device operates within a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C and supports a maximum voltage rating of 100V, with a power rating of 0.8W (0.05W per resistor). The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, while the ceramic case enhances durability and heat dissipation.
