The **ATS-15D-93-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component. Specifically, it is a **heat sink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) as part of their "pushPIN™" line. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table outlines the physical and thermal properties of this specific model: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | pushPIN™ (Spring-loaded) | | **Fin Style** | Straight | | **Fin Pattern** | Fine-Pitch | | **Base Dimensions** | 40mm x 40mm | | **Height** | 15mm | | **Thermal Resistance** | 11.90°C/W (at 100 LFM) | | **Thermal Interface Material** | T766 (Pre-applied phase change material) | --- ### 2. Component Features #### Attachment Mechanism (pushPIN™) The "R0" designation at the end of the part number refers to the push-pin attachment system. This replaces traditional adhesive tapes or clips. * **Precision Springs:** Provides a specific amount of compression force (load) to ensure optimal contact with the electronic component. * **Stability:** Features a 4-corner attachment style to prevent "tilting" or uneven cooling. #### Thermal Interface Material (TIM) The unit comes with **T766** pre-applied. This is a phase-change material designed to fill microscopic air gaps between the heat sink and the chip (CPU, GPU, or ASIC), significantly reducing thermal resistance. #### Fin Design The **Straight Fin** design with **Fine-Pitch** spacing is optimized for environments with high airflow. It maximizes the surface area while maintaining a relatively low profile (15mm). --- ### 3. Applications This part is commonly found in the following electronic systems: 1. **Networking Hardware:** Routers, switches, and base stations. 2. **Embedded Systems:** Industrial PCs and automation controllers. 3. **Power Supplies:** Cooling high-wattage MOSFETs or voltage regulators. 4. **Processors:** Cooling small form-factor CPUs or FPGAs. --- ### 4.
