GS8B031691CT Description

The GS8B031691CT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, this bussed (BUS) configuration integrates 15 thin-film resistors with a 1.69KΩ resistance value and an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance. Its ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient ensures stability across a wide operating range of -70°C to +125°C, making it suitable for environments with thermal fluctuations. The SOIC-C series construction features a rectangular ceramic case with gull-wing termination, optimized for surface-mount (SMT) assembly. With a 0.8W total power rating (0.05W per resistor) and 100V maximum voltage rating, it balances performance and reliability in compact designs.
