The **ATS-08G-47-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic component specifically categorized as a **Heat Sink**. It is designed by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) for the thermal management of integrated circuits (ICs), such as CPUs, GPUs, or FPGAs, where space is limited but heat dissipation requirements are high. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table outlines the physical and thermal characteristics of the part: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Attachment Type** | Push Pin | | **Base Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Dimensions (L x W)** | 25mm x 25mm | | **Height (Off Base)** | 20mm | | **Fin Style** | XCUT (Cross-cut) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 9.30°C/W (at 100 LFM) | --- ### 2. Design & Composition The "XCUT" design and the specific material choice are critical for its operation: * **Material:** It is made from **Aluminum 6063**, which offers a high thermal conductivity-to-weight ratio. * **Fin Geometry:** The cross-cut (XCUT) pattern creates a series of small squares/pins. This increases surface area and allows for omnidirectional airflow, meaning the heat sink performs well regardless of which direction the fan is blowing. * **Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This specific model typically comes with **T766** pre-applied. This is a phase-change material that fills microscopic air gaps between the heat sink and the chip to improve heat transfer. --- ### 3. Attachment Mechanism: pushPIN™ The "R0" at the end of the part number signifies the specific attachment method. * **Push Pins:** These are spring-loaded pins that snap into pre-drilled holes on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). * **Springs:** The brass or plastic springs provide consistent pressure, ensuring the heat sink stays in firm contact with the component even during vibrations or shipping. --- ### 4.
