GS8B021691CAT Description

The GS8B021691CAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. This 16-pin narrow SOIC (SOIC-C series) component features 15 bussed resistors with a 1.69 kΩ resistance value and an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance (±0.05% ratio tolerance). Built with thin-film technology, it delivers stable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C) and operates at a maximum voltage rating of 100V. The 0.05W (1/20) power rating per resistor and 0.8W total power rating ensure reliability in compact, high-density circuits. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration.
