GUS-QS8A-03-3832-CA Description

The GUS-QS8A-03-3832-CA from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-precision 8-resistor thin film network designed for demanding surface-mount applications. Encased in a 16-pin QSOP package with gull wing terminations, it offers a 38.3KΩ resistance per resistor with an ultra-tight ±0.25% tolerance and a low ±25ppm/°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 (0.1W per resistor) and a 100V maximum voltage rating, this component is engineered for reliability in precision circuits. Its isolated (ISOL) circuit design provides flexibility in signal routing, while the thin film technology guarantees low noise and high accuracy.
