GUS-QS8A-01-1802-GB Description

The GUS-QS8A-01-1802-GB from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications. This 8-resistor isolated network features a 18K Ohm resistance value with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stable performance across a wide temperature range of 70°C to 125°C. Encased in a compact 16-pin QSOP package with gull-wing SMD termination, it offers a 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating and 0.1W (1/10W) per resistor, making it ideal for space-constrained designs requiring reliable power dissipation. With a maximum voltage rating of 100V and RoHS non-compliant construction, it suits industrial and non-automotive applications where precision and durability are critical.

GUS-QS8A-01-1802-GB Features

• Thin-film technology for high accuracy and stability.
• 8 isolated resistors in a single QSOP-16 package (4.9mm x 6.02mm x 1.47mm).
• 0.64mm terminal pitch for high-density PCB layouts.
• Wide operating range: -70°C to +125°C (derated power).
• Low TCR (±100ppm/°C) minimizes resistance drift.
• Gull-wing SMD termination for robust soldering.
• Non-automotive grade with no PPAP requirements.

GUS-QS8A-01-1802-GB Applications

This resistor network excels in:

• Precision analog circuits (e.g., voltage dividers, feedback networks).
• Signal conditioning in industrial sensors and test equipment.
• Medical devices requiring stable resistance over temperature.
• Telecom infrastructure (e.g., line drivers, impedance matching).
• Embedded systems where board space optimization is critical.

Conclusion of GUS-QS8A-01-1802-GB

The GUS-QS8A-01-1802-GB combines thin-film precision, compact packaging, and high power handling in a cost-effective solution. Its isolated resistor design and low TCR make it superior to thicker-film or carbon-based alternatives in demanding environments. While not suited for automotive use, it is a top choice for industrial, medical, and telecom applications requiring long-term reliability. The tube packaging ensures safe handling and storage for high-volume production.
