The **ATS-07F-47-C3-R0** is a specific part number for a high-performance **Heatsink** manufactured by **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)**. It is part of their "push-pin" attachment series designed for cooling electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number follows a specific nomenclature that defines its physical and thermal characteristics: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum (Blue Anodized) | | **Fin Type** | Straight Fin | | **Dimensions** | 36.83mm x 36.83mm x 22.86mm (Height) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 6.63°C/W (at 200 LFM) | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic or Brass) | | **Spring Type** | Compression Spring | | **Thermal Interface (TIM)** | T412 (Pre-applied) | --- ### 2. Component Breakdown #### A. The Heatsink Body The "Straight Fin" design is optimized for high-velocity airflows. The blue anodized coating is not just for aesthetics; it provides surface protection and slightly improves radiation heat transfer. #### B. Push-Pin Attachment Mechanism Instead of using adhesive tape or screws, this part uses a **Push-Pin and Spring** system: * **Ease of Installation:** Allows for quick assembly to the PCB. * **Constant Pressure:** The spring ensures the heatsink maintains consistent contact with the electronic chip, which is critical for efficient heat transfer. * **Safety:** It prevents the heatsink from shifting during mechanical vibration or shipping. #### C. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) The "C3" in the part number indicates the presence of **T412 thermal tape/grease**. This material fills the microscopic air gaps between the component surface and the heatsink base, significantly reducing thermal resistance. --- ### 3. Common Applications This specific heatsink size and thermal profile are commonly found in: * **Telecommunications:** Cooling network switches and routers. * **Industrial PC:** Protecting embedded processors. * **Power Electronics:** Managing heat for large transistors or voltage regulators. --- ### 4.
