The **ATS-15D-71-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically a **Heat Sink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS). It is designed to dissipate heat from electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, or high-power semiconductors. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number follows a specific nomenclature used by ATS to define the physical and thermal properties of the device. | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Product Type** | push-PIN™ Heat Sink | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Fin Type** | Straight Fin | | **Attachment Method** | Push-PIN (Spring Loaded) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 6.67°C/W (at 100 LFM) | | **Thermal Interface Material (TIM)** | T766 (Pre-applied) | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | --- ### 2. Physical Dimensions Precision sizing is critical for ensuring compatibility with the PCB layout and avoiding interference with surrounding components. | Dimension | Measurement | | :--- | :--- | | **Length/Width** | 45.00 mm x 45.00 mm | | **Height** | 30.00 mm | | **Mounting Hole Spacing** | 38.00 mm | | **Push-Pin Material** | Brass / Plastic (Standard) | --- ### 3. Key Features and Applications The "C2" in the part number indicates a specific combination of material and thermal interface properties. * **push-PIN™ Mounting:** This system uses a flexible, tool-free mechanism with a compression spring. This ensures a consistent pressure on the heat source (the "chip"), which optimizes thermal transfer. * **Vertical Fin Design:** The straight-fin design is optimized for environments with high-velocity airflow (active cooling) where a fan is moving air across the heat sink. * **Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This model comes with **T766** pre-applied. TIM is the "paste" or "pad" that fills microscopic air gaps between the heat sink and the electronic component to improve heat conductivity. ### 4.
