GS8B034121CAT Description

The GS8B034121CAT 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 4.12KΩ resistance value and an exceptional ±0.25% absolute tolerance (±0.05% ratio tolerance). Built with thin-film technology, it ensures low TCR (±25ppm/°C) and stable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C). The 0.05W (1/20) power rating per resistor and 100V maximum voltage rating make it suitable for precision circuits. Its ceramic case and gull-wing termination provide robust mechanical and thermal reliability.
