The **ATS-01D-07-C3-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically a **Heat Sink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS). It is designed to dissipate heat from electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, or power transistors to prevent thermal throttling or hardware failure. --- ## 1. Technical Specifications The part belongs to the **pushPIN™** series, which uses a specific attachment mechanism for secure mounting. | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum (Blue Anodized) | | **Heat Sink Type** | Push-pin Heat Sink | | **Thermal Resistance (LFM 100)** | 17.09 °C/W (at 0.5 m/s) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 45mm x 45mm x 12.7mm | | **Mounting Pattern** | 38.4mm x 38.4mm | | **Attachment Type** | Push-Pin (Brass or Plastic) | | **Fin Style** | Straight Fin | --- ## 2. Key Features and Materials ### A. Material and Coating * **Aluminum 6063:** This alloy provides an excellent balance between thermal conductivity and weight. * **Blue Anodized Finish:** This is not just for aesthetics; the anodized layer provides electrical insulation and corrosion resistance while slightly increasing the surface emissivity for better radiation cooling. ### B. Thermal Performance Thermal resistance is the critical metric for this part. It measures the degree's rise per watt of power: * **Unducted Flow:** Higher resistance (requires airflow to be efficient). * **Ducted Flow:** Significantly lower resistance (works best when air is forced directly through the fins). --- ## 3. The pushPIN™ Attachment System The "01D" and "R0" suffixes in the part number refer to the specific mounting hardware. * **Mechanism:** It utilizes a spring-loaded push-pin system. * **Pressure:** The springs are pre-calibrated to provide the exact amount of pressure required to maximize thermal contact between the chip and the heat sink without damaging the PCB. * **Ease of Use:** This eliminates the need for messy thermal adhesives and allows for easy removal during maintenance. --- ## 4.
