The **ATS-14D-99-C2-R0** is a specific high-performance electronic component belonging to the **heat sink** family. It is manufactured by *Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)* as part of their "push pin" attachment line. ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table highlights the core technical characteristics of this component: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Base Dimensions** | 45mm x 45mm | | **Height** | 20mm | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Spring-loaded) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 1.15°C/W (at 200 LFM) | --- ### 2. Design and Engineering Features This heat sink is designed for effective thermal management of integrated circuits (ICs) and other heat-generating electronic components. #### A. Fin Geometry * **Fin Pitch:** High-performance cross-cut design. * **Efficiency:** The design maximizes surface area while allowing for multi-directional airflow, which is critical for densely packed PCB environments. #### B. The "pushPIN™" System * **Mechanical Integrity:** It uses a spring-loaded attachment mechanism that ensures consistent pressure between the heat sink and the component (TIM - Thermal Interface Material). * **Ease of Installation:** This allows for a secure, tool-less application that prevents damage to the component during assembly. #### C. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) * The part usually comes pre-applied with **T766** thermal phase change material, which optimizes the thermal path between the heat source and the aluminum body. --- ### 3. Application Use Cases This specific part is typically found in: 1. **Telecommunications:** High-speed routers and switches. 2. **Computing:** Server CPUs or specialized ASICs. 3. **Industrial Controls:** Power electronics that require reliable cooling in a compact 45x45mm footprint. ---
