### 4. Technical Characteristics & Material
* **Material:** High-grade Aluminum.
* **Finish:** Blue Anodized (provides corrosion resistance and improved emissivity).
* **Fin Type:** **XCUT** (Cross-cut design). This allows for multi-directional airflow, making it ideal for systems where air may flow from various angles rather than a straight line.
* **Interface Material:** **T766** Thermal Interface Material (TIM). This is a pre-applied phase-change material or grease that ensures maximum heat transfer between the component and the heat sink.

### 5. Part Number Nomenclature
Understanding the suffix codes:
* **ATS-15B:** Series identification.
* **64:** Specific fin pattern/geometry.
* **C2:** Material/Color code (Aluminum, Blue Anodized).
* **R0:** Revision code or packaging standard.
