The **ATS-07D-204-C2-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 following table outlines the physical and thermal characteristics of this specific part: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Spring Loaded) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 54.00mm x 54.00mm x 6.00mm | | **Thermal Resistance** | 7.43°C/W (Unducted Flow @ 100 LFM) | | **Thermal Interface (TIM)** | T766 (Pre-applied) | --- ### 2. Key Design Elements #### A. Fin Profile (Fine-Pitch) This model utilizes a **square-fin** (or cross-cut) design. This geometry maximizes surface area while allowing for multi-directional airflow, which is critical in dense electronic enclosures where air may not flow in a single straight path. #### B. The pushPIN™ Attachment System Instead of using messy adhesives or permanent solder, this part uses a mechanical push-pin system: * **Brass/Plastic Pins:** Secure the heat sink to the PCB. * **Compression Springs:** Provide precise, consistent pressure across the component surface to ensure optimal heat transfer without damaging the silicon die. #### C. Low Profile Design With a height of only **6.00mm**, this is considered a "Low Profile" heat sink. It is ideal for 1U servers, slim industrial PCs, or mobile hardware where vertical space is highly restricted. --- ### 3. Thermal Performance Indicators Thermal resistance is measured in °C/W (Degrees Celsius per Watt). A lower number is better. | Airflow (LFM) | Velocity (m/s) | Thermal Resistance (°C/W) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 100 | 0.5 | 7.43 | | 300 | 1.5 | 3.28 | | 500 | 2.5 | 2.31 | | 700 | 3.5 | 1.87 | --- ### 4.
