GS8B016341CT Description

The GS8B016341CT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding circuit applications. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, it features 15 bussed (BUS) thin-film resistors with a 6.34KΩ resistance and an ultra-tight ±0.25% tolerance. The device operates over a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C) with a ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability in fluctuating environments. Its 0.05W (1/20) power rating per resistor and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for precision analog and digital systems. The SOIC-C series construction offers robust ceramic substrate reliability, while the gull-wing termination enables secure surface-mount (SMD) assembly.

GS8B016341CT Features

• High Precision: ±0.25% absolute tolerance for critical signal conditioning.
• Thermally Stable: ±100ppm/°C TCR minimizes drift in temperature-sensitive designs.
• Compact & Durable: 9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm ceramic SOIC package with ±0.1mm dimensional tolerances.
