GS8B034120DCT

GS8B034120DCT Description

The GS8B034120DCT 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 device integrates 15 thin-film resistors, each with a 412Ω resistance and an absolute tolerance of ±0.5%. Its ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient ensures stable performance across a wide operating temperature range of 70°C to 125°C. The network offers a power rating of 0.8W total (0.05W per resistor) and supports 100V maximum voltage, making it suitable for precision analog and digital circuits. The gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration, while the ceramic case enhances durability and thermal management.

GS8B034120DCT Features

• Precision Tolerance: ±0.5% absolute, ±0.25% ratio tolerance for matched resistance values.
• Stable Performance: ±25ppm/°C TCR and 125°C max operating temperature ensure reliability in harsh environments.
• Robust Construction: Ceramic SOIC package with 1.45mm height and ±0.1mm dimensional tolerances for consistent mounting.
• High Power Handling: 0.8W total dissipation (0.05W per resistor) at derated 70–125°C range.
• Bussed Topology: Simplifies circuit design by connecting multiple resistors to a common node.
• Surface-Mount Ready: 1.27mm terminal pitch and gull-wing leads for automated assembly.

GS8B034120DCT Applications

Ideal for precision applications requiring tight tolerance and thermal stability, such as:

• Voltage dividers and current sensing in industrial control systems.
