Additional Details
The SOMC160310K0GEA comes in a SOMC-16 (Small Outline Molded Chip) package. Each of the eight resistors within the array has a resistance value of 10 kΩ, with a tolerance of ±2%. The temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) is ±100 ppm/°C, indicating the stability of the resistance value over temperature changes. The power rating per resistor is typically around 0.1 W, and the total power rating for the package is specified in the datasheet. Vishay's resistor arrays are designed for high-density circuit boards where space is limited. The convex termination style provides excellent solderability. Detailed specifications, including the working voltage, overload voltage, and insulation resistance, can be found in the product datasheet. Proper handling and storage are important to prevent damage and ensure reliable performance. The operating temperature range is usually from -55°C to +125°C.
