GS8B013920GGT

GS8B013920GGT Description

The GS8B013920GGT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications in demanding electronic circuits. This 16-pin narrow SOIC (SOIC-C series) device integrates 15 bussed resistors, each with a 392Ω resistance value and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance. Built with thin-film technology, it offers excellent stability with a ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable operation across a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. The 0.05W (1/20) power rating per resistor and 0.8W total power rating make it suitable for low-power, high-density designs. Its 100V maximum voltage rating and gull-wing termination facilitate robust surface-mount (SMD) assembly in compact PCB layouts.

GS8B013920GGT Features

• Ceramic case (SOIC package): Enhances thermal performance and durability in harsh environments.
• Bussed network (BUS designator): Simplifies circuit design by connecting multiple resistors to a common node.
• Precision thin-film resistors: Delivers ±2% tolerance and low TCR (±100ppm/°C) for stable performance.
• Compact dimensions: 9.91mm (L) × 5.99mm (D) × 1.45mm (H) with tight tolerances (±0.1mm height/length, ±0.2mm depth).
• High-temperature operation: Rated for 125°C maximum operating temperature, ideal for industrial and automotive-adjacent applications (though not PPAP/automotive-certified).
• Non-RoHS compliant: Suitable for legacy or specialized systems where RoHS exemptions apply.

GS8B013920GGT Applications

This resistor network excels in:

• Signal conditioning circuits: Voltage dividers, pull-up/pull-down networks in analog/digital systems.
• Industrial control systems: PLCs, sensor interfaces, and power management modules requiring stable resistance under thermal stress.
• Telecommunications equipment: Line termination, impedance matching, and filtering in high-frequency PCBs.
• Test & measurement devices: Calibration circuits and precision instrumentation where ratio tolerance (±2%) is critical.
• Legacy electronics repair: Non-RoHS compliance makes it a fit for older equipment maintenance.
