GS8B021652GFT Description

The GS8B021652GFT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance ceramic resistor network designed for precision applications. Packaged in a 16-pin narrow SOIC (SOIC-C series), it features 15 bussed resistors with a 16.5KΩ resistance value and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance. The thin-film technology ensures excellent stability with a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, making it suitable for environments with fluctuating temperatures. Rated for 0.05W (1/20W) per resistor and 0.8W total power dissipation, it operates within a 70°C to 125°C derated power range, with a maximum voltage rating of 100V. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration.

GS8B021652GFT Features

• High Precision: ±2% absolute tolerance and ±1% ratio tolerance ensure consistent performance.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic case and thin-film technology provide durability and thermal stability.
• Space-Efficient: Compact 9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm footprint (SOIC package) saves board space.
• Wide Operating Range: Functions reliably from -55°C to 125°C, with derated power up to 125°C.
• Low TCR: ±50ppm/°C minimizes resistance drift under temperature variations.
• Automated Assembly Friendly: Gull-wing leads and 1.27mm terminal pitch simplify SMT processes.
