GS8B034220FCT Description

The GS8B034220FCT 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 422Ω resistance value, offering an absolute tolerance of ±1% and an exceptional ratio tolerance of ±0.25%. Built with thin-film technology, this network ensures low temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C) and stable performance across a wide temperature range (70°C to 125°C). With a power rating of 0.8W (0.05W per resistor) and a maximum voltage rating of 100V, it is ideal for precision circuits requiring reliable resistance matching.

GS8B034220FCT Features

• Ceramic Case & Thin Film Technology: Ensures high thermal stability and low noise in harsh environments.
• Bussed Network (15 Resistors): Simplifies circuit design by reducing component count.
• Tight Tolerances: ±1% absolute and ±0.25% ratio tolerance for precision applications.
