The **ATS-11F-128-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically a **Heat Sink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS). It is part of their "push pin" series designed for cooling integrated circuits (ICs) like CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions Inc. (ATS) | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push Pin (Plastic/Brass) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 2.91°C/W (at 200 LFM) | | **Dimension (L x W x H)** | 54mm x 54mm x 15mm | | **Fin Style** | Straight Fin (Extrusion) | --- ### 2. Design Characteristics * **Heat Sink Profile:** The device uses a high-density straight fin design. This maximizes surface area for convective cooling while maintaining a low profile (15mm) suitable for compact electronic enclosures. * **Attachment Mechanism:** The `R0` suffix indicates a specific mounting kit. It utilizes **Push Pins** with a pre-loaded spring. This ensures consistent pressure (TIM compression) and secure mechanical attachment to the PCB without the need for adhesive tapes. * **Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** Most components in this series come with a pre-applied high-performance thermal pad (often T766) to ensure low contact resistance between the chip and the aluminum base. --- ### 3.
