The **ATS-13D-133-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically a **heat sink** designed for cooling integrated circuits (ICs) and other electronic components. It is manufactured by **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)** as part of their "blue ice" high-performance heat sink line. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table summarizes the primary physical and thermal characteristics of the part: | Characteristic | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Product Type** | Passive Heat Sink | | **Attachment Method** | pushPIN™ | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 70.00 mm x 70.00 mm x 10.00 mm | | **Fin Configuration** | Fine Pitch (Cros-cut) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 2.11°C/W (at 1.0 m/s airflow) | --- ### 2. Electronic/Thermal Functionality This part serves as a **passive heat exchanger**. It functions by increasing the surface area of a heat-generating electronic component (such as a CPU, FPGA, or GPU), allowing the surrounding air to carry heat away more efficiently. * **Thermal Interface:** In a real-world electronic circuit, this part is paired with a **Thermal Interface Material (TIM)** like thermal paste or a pad to fill microscopic air gaps between the chip and the aluminum base. * **Heat Dissipation:** The cross-cut fin design is optimized for airflow from any direction, making it versatile for dense PCB layouts. --- ### 3. Key Mechanical Features * **pushPIN™ Attachment:** Unlike adhesive tapes which can degrade, this part uses a spring-loaded pin mechanism. This ensures constant, reliable pressure between the heat sink and the component, which is critical for maintaining thermal conductivity over the lifespan of the device. * **Low Profile:** With a height of only **10.00 mm**, this part is specifically designed for low-clearance electronic enclosures or blade servers where vertical space is restricted. --- ### 4.
