GS8B033832BT Description

The GS8B033832BT 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), it features 15 bussed resistors with a 38.3KΩ resistance value and an ultra-tight ±0.1% absolute tolerance. Built with thin-film technology, this network delivers exceptional stability with a low ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring reliable performance across a wide temperature range of -70°C to +125°C. The 0.05W (1/20) power rating per resistor and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for precision analog and digital circuits.

GS8B033832BT Features

• High Precision: ±0.1% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C TCR for critical applications.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic substrate and gull-wing termination for durability in surface-mount environments.
• Space-Efficient: Compact 9.91mm × 5.99mm × 1.45mm footprint with 1.27mm terminal pitch.
