GS8B032432GAT

GS8B032432GAT Description

The GS8B032432GAT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding applications requiring stable performance across a wide temperature range. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, this bussed network integrates 15 resistors with a 24.3KΩ resistance value and a tight ±2% absolute tolerance. Its thin-film technology ensures low noise and excellent thermal stability, with a ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, making it ideal for precision analog and digital circuits. The device operates within a -55°C to +125°C range (derated power up to 125°C) and supports a maximum voltage rating of 100V. With a 0.8W total power rating (0.05W per resistor), it balances compactness and reliability in surface-mount designs.

GS8B032432GAT Features

• High Precision: ±2% absolute tolerance and ±0.05% ratio tolerance for matched resistance values.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic case and thin-film technology ensure durability and long-term stability.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates from -55°C to +125°C with derated power up to 125°C.
• Low TCR: ±25ppm/°C minimizes resistance drift under thermal stress.
