GUS-QS8A-02-1822-GG Description

The GUS-QS8A-02-1822-GG from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance thin-film resistor network designed for precision applications. This 16-pin QSOP surface-mount device features eight isolated 18.2KΩ resistors with a tight 2% tolerance and a low ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stability across a wide operating range of -70°C to +125°C. With a 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating and 0.1W per resistor, it delivers reliable performance in compact designs. The gull-wing termination and 0.64mm terminal pitch facilitate easy PCB integration, while the 1.47mm low-profile height suits space-constrained applications. Packaged in a tube, it is ideal for automated assembly processes.
