GS8B036342FCT Description

The GS8B036342FCT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision ceramic resistor network designed for demanding electronic applications. Housed in a 16-pin narrow SOIC package, it features 15 bussed resistors with a 63.4KΩ resistance value and a tight ±1% absolute tolerance, ensuring consistent performance. The thin-film technology delivers a low ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, making it suitable for stable operation across a -70°C to +125°C range. With a 0.05W (1/20) power rating per resistor and a 100V maximum voltage rating, this network is engineered for reliability in precision circuits. Its gull-wing termination and surface-mount design facilitate easy PCB integration.
