The **ATS-14B-95-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically a **Heat Sink** manufactured by *Advanced Thermal Solutions, Inc. (ATS)*. It is part of the "blue ICE" series designed for cooling electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, and power modules. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table highlights the critical dimensions and thermal properties of this specific model: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 40mm x 40mm x 25mm | | **Fin Style** | Straight Fin (Extruded) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 7.29°C/W (at 200 LFM) | | **Attachment Method** | pushPIN™ | | **Spring Type** | Brass (standard) | --- ### 2. Key Design Features #### A. pushPIN™ Attachment System The "14B" in the part number indicates the use of ATS’s proprietary **pushPIN™** mounting system. * **Stability:** It ensures precise pressure is applied to the component, optimizing thermal transfer. * **Ease of Install:** Uses a spring-loaded mechanism that snaps into pre-drilled holes on the PCB. #### B. Material and Coating * **Aluminum Construction:** Provides a balance between high thermal conductivity and low weight. * **Blue Anodizing:** This is not just for aesthetics; the anodized layer provides corrosion resistance and slightly improves heat radiation (emissivity) compared to raw aluminum. #### C. Straight Fin Profile The straight-fin design is optimized for **forced air cooling** (active airflow from fans). It allows air to pass through the channels with minimal pressure drop, making it ideal for high-density electronic enclosures. --- ### 3. Application Use Cases The ATS-14B-95-C2-R0 is typically used in environments where electronic components generate significant heat in a small footprint: * **Telecommunications:** Cooling of high-speed processors in network switches. * **Embedded Systems:** Industrial PCs and automation controllers. * **Power Electronics:** Voltage regulators and power supplies. ---
