GS8B021272DCT

GS8B021272DCT Description

The GS8B021272DCT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. This 16-pin narrow SOIC device features 15 bussed resistors with a 12.7KΩ resistance value and an absolute tolerance of ±0.5%, ensuring exceptional accuracy. Built with thin-film technology, it offers a low temperature coefficient of ±50ppm/°C, maintaining stable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C). The SOIC package (9.91mm x 5.99mm x 1.45mm) with gull-wing terminations ensures reliable surface-mount assembly, while its 0.05W (1/20) power rating per resistor and 0.8W total power rating make it suitable for low-power circuits.
