GS8B0171R5FT Description

The GS8B0171R5FT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding surface-mount applications. Packaged in a 16-pin narrow SOIC (SOIC-C Series), this bussed network integrates 15 resistors with a 71.5Ω resistance value and a tight ±1% absolute tolerance. Built with thin-film technology, it delivers excellent stability with a ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable performance across a wide temperature range of 70°C to 125°C. The 0.05W (1/20W) power rating per resistor and 0.8W total power rating make it suitable for low-power circuits, while its 100V maximum voltage rating enhances versatility. The gull-wing termination and 1.27mm terminal pitch facilitate easy PCB integration.
