GUS-QS8A-02-6342-CA Description

The GUS-QS8A-02-6342-CA from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision thin-film resistor network designed for demanding surface-mount applications. This 16-pin QSOP package integrates 8 isolated resistors, each with a 63.4KΩ resistance value and an ultra-tight ±0.25% tolerance, ensuring exceptional accuracy in signal conditioning, voltage division, and impedance matching circuits. With a ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, it delivers stable performance across a wide operating range of -70°C to +125°C, making it suitable for environments with thermal fluctuations. The 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating and 100V maximum voltage rating further enhance its reliability in power-sensitive designs.

GUS-QS8A-02-6342-CA Features

• Precision Thin Film Technology: Delivers low noise and high stability for critical analog circuits.
• Compact QSOP Package: Measures just 4.9mm (L) × 6.02mm (D) × 1.47mm (H) with gull-wing terminations for easy soldering.
• Isolated Resistors (ISOL): Eight independent resistors prevent crosstalk, ideal for multi-channel systems.
• Robust Power Handling: 0.1W per resistor (0.75W total) supports higher dissipation than standard arrays.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates reliably from -70°C to +125°C with derated performance up to 125°C.
• Strict Tolerances: ±0.25% resistance tolerance and ±0.1mm height tolerance ensure consistency in automated assembly.
