The **ATS-13F-207-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically a **Heat Sink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS). It is designed for cooling electronic components such as CPUs, GPUs, or high-power semiconductors. ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table summarizes the key physical and thermal characteristics of this part: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Part Number** | ATS-13F-207-C2-R0 | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Heat Sink Type** | XCUT (Cross-cut) | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (with Compression Springs) | | **Dimensions (L x W)** | 60mm x 60mm | | **Height** | 12mm | --- ### 2. Key Design Features The "ATS-13F-207-C2-R0" features specific engineering choices to optimize heat dissipation: * **XCUT Fin Pattern:** The cross-cut fin design creates more surface area and allows for multi-directional airflow, making it effective in systems where the direction of the fan exhaust might vary. * **Push-Pin Attachment:** Instead of messy thermal glue, this uses plastic push-pins and springs. This ensures constant pressure against the chip for better thermal transfer and allows for easier removal/maintenance. * **Low Profile:** With a height of only 12mm, this part is designed for "thin" electronics or rack-mounted servers where vertical space is limited. * **C2 Material/Finish:** The "C2" designation typically refers to the specific aluminum alloy and the Blue Anodized finish, which protects the metal from corrosion and slightly improves radiant heat emission. --- ### 3. Application Use Cases This specific heat sink is typically found in: 1. **Network Switches/Routers:** Cooling the main processing ASICs. 2. **Embedded Systems:** Industrial PCs where reliability is paramount. 3. **Power Electronics:** Dissipating heat from MOSFETs or Power Modules. --- ### 4. Part Number Breakdown While manufacturer-specific, the code can generally be read as: * **ATS:** Manufacturer (Advanced Thermal Solutions). * **13:** Series/Type. * **F:** Fin style/pitch. * **207:** Specific footprint/size code. * **C2:** Material and Finish (Blue Anodized). * **R0:** RoHS compliance status or revision level.
