GS8B032801FCT Description

The GS8B032801FCT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. Packaged in a 16-pin narrow SOIC (SOIC-C series), this bussed network integrates 15 resistors with a 2.8KΩ resistance value and a tight ±1% absolute tolerance, ensuring consistent performance. The thin-film technology delivers excellent stability with a low ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, making it suitable for environments with fluctuating temperatures. Rated for 0.05W (1/20) per resistor and 0.8W total power, it operates reliably within a 70°C to 125°C derated range, with a maximum operating temperature of 125°C. Its 100V maximum voltage rating and 1.27mm terminal pitch facilitate integration into compact, high-density PCB designs.
