The part number **ATS-09D-83-C2-R0** refers to a high-performance **Heatsink** manufactured by **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)**. It is part of their *push-pin* attachment series, specifically designed for cooling electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, or high-power ASICs. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications Below is a breakdown of the primary technical characteristics for this specific model: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic) | | **Spring Type** | Compression Spring | | **Fin Type** | Straight Fin | | **Thermal Resistance** | ~2.02°C/W (at 200 LFM) | | **Thermal Interface Material (TIM)** | T766 (Pre-applied) | --- ### 2. Physical Dimensions The dimensions are critical for ensuring the part fits within the PCB layout constraints: * **Size (L x W):** 30mm x 30mm * **Height:** 20mm * **Mounting Hole Pitch:** 35mm (diagonal/standard for this footprint) --- ### 3. Component Breakdown The part assembly consists of several electronic-mechanical sub-components: #### A. The Heatsink Body Made from extruded aluminum. The **Blue Anodized** coating is not just for aesthetics; it provides surface protection and slightly improves emissivity (heat radiation) compared to bare aluminum. #### B. Push-Pin Mounting System This model uses a **plastic push-pin** with a **compression spring**. This design ensures: * **Constant Pressure:** Maintains a secure contact between the heatsink base and the chip. * **Vibration Resistance:** Prevents the cooler from shifting during shipping or operation. #### C. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) The "C2" in the part number indicates it comes with **T766 phase-change material** or a high-performance thermal pad pre-applied to the bottom. This fills microscopic air gaps between the component and the heatsink to maximize heat transfer. --- ### 4.
