The **ATS-07E-86-C2-R0** is a high-performance heat sink manufactured by **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)**. It is part of the "push pin" series designed for cooling electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, and power transistors. ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table summarizes the physical and thermal characteristics of the part: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Dimensions** | 35.00mm x 35.00mm | | **Height** | 15.00mm | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic/Brass) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 17.72° C/W (@ 1.0 m/s) | | **Fin Style** | XC-Cut (Cross-Cut) | --- ### 2. Key Component Features #### A. XC-Cut Fin Design The "XC-Cut" refers to a cross-cut straight fin pattern. This design allows for: * **Omni-directional Airflow:** It can receive cooling air from any direction, making it ideal for systems with complex internal air patterns. * **Surface Area:** Increases the total surface area for heat dissipation compared to basic straight fins. #### B. Attachment System (Push-Pins) Unlike adhesive-based heat sinks, this model uses a mechanical push-pin system: * **Spring-Loaded:** Provides consistent pressure on the electronic chip, ensuring optimal contact. * **Pre-Drilled Holes:** Requires the PCB to have specific mounting holes (usually 47.00mm pitch for this series). #### C. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) The "C2" in the part number indicates that it comes pre-applied with **ATS-51**, a high-performance thermal grease, which eliminates the need for manual application during assembly. --- ### 3. Applications This part is typically used in the following electronic environments: 1. **Telecommunications:** Cooling of high-speed processors in switches and routers. 2. **Embedded Systems:** Industrial PCs where vibration resistance (via push-pins) is required. 3. **Power Electronics:** Dissipating heat from MOSFETs or voltage regulators.
