The **ATS-17B-85-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 transistors. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number encodes specific physical and thermal properties. Here is the breakdown: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ Heat Sink | | **Attachment Type** | Push-Pin (Plastic or Brass) | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Thermal Resistance** | 24.11° C/W (at 100 LFM) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 35.0mm x 35.0mm x 10.0mm | --- ### 2. Key Features The ATS-17B-85-C2-R0 is engineered for versatility and efficiency in tight PCB layouts: * **Fine Pitch Fin Design:** Uses a cross-cut pattern (high-density fins) to maximize surface area, allowing for better heat dissipation in both natural and forced convection environments. * **pushPIN™ Attachment:** Features a spring-loaded mechanism that provides a precise, consistent pressure (preload) against the component, improving the thermal interface. * **Pre-Applied Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This specific model typically comes with **T766** phase-change material or similar, ensuring low thermal resistance between the chip and the aluminum base. * **Material Grade:** Made from AL6063 aluminum for high thermal conductivity and lightweight performance. --- ### 3. Thermal Performance Profile Thermal resistance varies based on the airflow (measured in Linear Feet per Minute - LFM): | Velocity (LFM) | Resistance (°C/W) | | :--- | :--- | | 100 (0.5 m/s) | 24.11 | | 300 (1.5 m/s) | 6.81 | | 500 (2.5 m/s) | 4.30 | | 700 (3.5 m/s) | 3.35 | --- ### 4. Implementation Example To integrate this part into a CAD design, the hole pattern for the push-pins must be exact: ```text Hole Spacing (Pitch): 40.0mm x 40.0mm Hole Diameter: 3.0mm (Standard for plastic push-pins) ```
