The **ATS-03H-79-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic component specifically categorized as a **Heat Sink**. It is manufactured by *Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)* and belongs to their "push pin" series, designed for cooling integrated circuits (ICs) and other electronic chips. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table outlines the physical and thermal characteristics of the component: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push Pin (Plastic) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 25mm x 25mm x 30mm | | **Thermal Resistance** | 2.63°C/W (at 200 LFM) | | **Fin Pattern** | Cross-Cut (Pedestal/Pin Fin) | | **Compliance** | RoHS and REACH Compliant | --- ### 2. Electronic Application & Usage This part is not an active electronic component (like a transistor) but a **passive thermal management device**. Its role is critical in maintaining the longevity of active electronics. * **Heat Dissipation:** It increases the surface area of a heat-generating component (like a CPU, GPU, or FPGA), allowing the surrounding air to carry heat away more efficiently. * **Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This specific model typically comes with a pre-applied **Phase Change Material (PCM)** or thermal tape to ensure there are no air gaps between the chip and the aluminum base. * **Mechanical Security:** The "Push Pin" mechanism uses a spring-loaded plastic pin that snaps into pre-drilled holes on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB), providing consistent pressure for optimal thermal contact. --- ### 3. Key Electronic Benefits * **Cross-Cut Design:** The fins are cut in both directions. In electronics, this is superior because it allows for "omni-directional" airflow, meaning the heat sink works regardless of which direction the cooling fan is blowing. * **High Aspect Ratio:** The 30mm height provides a large surface area for a small 25x25mm footprint, ideal for densely packed PCBs. * **Anodized Coating:** The blue anodizing is not just for aesthetics; it provides surface protection against corrosion and minor electrical insulation.
