GS8B033321CT Description

The GS8B033321CT 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 3.32KΩ resistance value and an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance. Built with thin-film technology, it ensures low noise and stable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C). The device operates at a maximum voltage rating of 100V and offers a power rating of 0.8W (0.05W per resistor), making it suitable for precision analog and digital circuits. Its ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient guarantees minimal resistance drift under thermal stress.
