The **ATS-13G-06-C2-R0** is a specific part number for a high-performance **Heatsink** manufactured by **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)**. It is part of their "push-pin" attachment series designed for cooling electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, and other integrated circuits. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table summarizes the key physical and thermal properties of the device: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Part Number** | ATS-13G-06-C2-R0 | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Fin Style** | Fine Pitch (Straight Fin) | | **Attachment Type** | Push-Pin (Brass) | | **Thermal Interface Material (TIM)** | T766 (Pre-applied) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 40.0mm x 40.0mm x 25.0mm | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | --- ### 2. Component Breakdown #### A. Thermal Performance * **Thermal Resistance:** This heatsink is designed to dissipate heat efficiently. The "C2" designation typically refers to a specific thermal performance grade within the ATS product line. * **Airflow Orientation:** The straight-fin design is optimized for unidirectional airflow. #### B. Attachment Mechanism (Push-Pin) * The part uses a **Brass Push-Pin** with a stainless steel spring. * **Benefit:** This provides a secure, consistent pressure against the component, ensuring the best possible contact with the thermal interface material without the need for adhesive tapes that can fail over time. #### C. Material and Finish * **Aluminum:** Chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity-to-weight ratio. * **Blue Anodized Coating:** This is not just for aesthetics; anodizing increases the surface area slightly at a microscopic level and protects the aluminum from corrosion. #### D. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) * This model comes with **T766** pre-applied to the base. This ensures that micro-gaps between the heatsink and the chip are filled, reducing thermal impedance immediately upon installation. --- ### 3. Common Applications This specific sizing (40mm x 40mm) is standard for several electronic categories: 1. **Network Switches/Routers:** Cooling main processors. 2. **Embedded Systems:** Industrial PCs and motherboards. 3. **Power Supplies:** Cooling MOSFETs or power regulators.
