The **ATS-10F-41-C1-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component. Specifically, it is a **Heatsink** designed by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) for cooling electronic integrated circuits (ICs) such as CPUs, GPUs, or FPGAs. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number follows a specific nomenclature that defines its physical and thermal properties. | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic or Brass) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 10.02°C/W (Unducted Flow @ 100 LFM) | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Dimensions** | 40mm x 40mm x 30mm | --- ### 2. Design and Components The ATS-10F-41-C1-R0 is engineered with several key electronic cooling features: * **Finned Design:** It utilizes a "Straight Fin" or "Cross-Cut" geometry to maximize surface area, allowing heat to transfer from the component to the surrounding air efficiently. * **Push-Pin Attachment:** Instead of messy adhesives, it uses a spring-loaded push-pin mechanism. This provides: * **Consistent Pressure:** Ensures the heatsink remains flat against the chip for optimal heat transfer. * **Secure Mounting:** Prevents the heatsink from shifting during mechanical shock or vibration. * **Pre-Applied Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This model typically comes with a high-performance phase-change material or thermal pad on the base, reducing the "Air Gap" resistance between the heat source and the metal. --- ### 3. Application Use Cases This specific heatsink is commonly found in the following electronic environments: 1. **Telecommunications:** Used on high-speed network switches and routers. 2. **Embedded Systems:** Ideal for industrial PCs where airflow may be limited but heat dissipation is critical. 3. **Power Electronics:** Cooling MOSFETs or power regulators in DC-DC converters. --- ### 4. Performance Metrics The thermal performance of this part is highly dependent on the velocity of the air (measured in Linear Feet per Minute - LFM): | Airflow (LFM) | Velocity (m/s) | Thermal Resistance (°C/W) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 100 | 0.5 | 10.02 | | 300 | 1.5 | 3.62 | | 500 | 2.5 | 2.36 | ---
