Key Physical & Thermal Specifications | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Material** | Aluminum (Blue Anodized) | | **Attachment Method** | push-PIN™ | | **Fin Type** | Fine Pitch (Straight) | | **Dimension (L x W x H)** | 45mm x 45mm x 15mm | | **Thermal Resistance** | 15.31°C/W (Unducted Flow @ 200 LFM) | | **Flow Orientation** | Vertical or Horizontal | --- ### 2. Major Electronic/Mechanical Components The part is not an "active" electronic device (like a transistor) but a **passive thermal management component**. Below are its functional parts: * **Heat Sink Body:** Extruded aluminum designed with a high surface area to volume ratio to maximize heat dissipation from the electronic component to the ambient air. * **push-PIN™ Mounting:** This is a mechanical attachment system. It includes a spring-loaded pin that passes through pre-drilled holes in the Printed Circuit Board (PCB), ensuring constant pressure and optimal contact between the heat sink and the chip. * **Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This specific model typically comes with **T766** pre-applied. TIM fills microscopic air gaps between the component and the heat sink to reduce thermal resistance. * **Blue Anodized Finish:** Provides corrosion resistance and slightly improves radiative heat transfer. --- ### 3. Application Use Cases 1. **High-Speed Networking:** Cooling chipsets in routers and switches. 2. **Industrial Computing:** Used for processors in embedded systems where space is limited (15mm height). 3. **Power Electronics:** Dissipating heat from MOSFETs or IGBT modules. --- ### 4.
