The **ATS-18F-151-C1-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 integrated circuits (ICs) to prevent overheating. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table outlines the physical and thermal characteristics of this part: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions Inc. (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Spring-loaded) | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Dimensions (L x W)** | 35.00mm x 35.00mm | | **Height** | 10.00mm | | **Pin Pitch** | 40.00mm (Center to Center) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 9.37 °C/W (@ 100 LFM) | --- ### 2. Key Features and Components * **pushPIN™ Attachment:** This model uses a push-pin and brass spring mechanism. This provides a secure, consistent pressure on the electronic chip, which optimizes the thermal interface material (TIM) performance. * **XC (Cross-Cut) Fin Design:** The "151" in the part number indicates a specific fin pattern. Cross-cut fins allow for multi-directional airflow, making the heat sink effective even if the airflow in the chassis is turbulent or changes direction. * **Pre-Applied Thermal Interface Material:** This specific model usually comes with **T766** thermal tape or grease pre-applied to the base, ensuring an efficient thermal path from the component to the aluminum. * **Low Profile:** With a height of only 10mm, it is designed for "1U" or low-clearance applications like network switches, blade servers, or compact embedded systems. --- ### 3. Thermal Performance (Airflow Data) Thermal resistance varies based on the velocity of the air passing through the fins (measured in Linear Feet per Minute - LFM): | Air Velocity (LFM) | Thermal Resistance (°C/W) | | :--- | :--- | | 100 (0.5 m/s) | 9.37 | | 300 (1.5 m/s) | 4.45 | | 500 (2.5 m/s) | 3.32 | | 700 (3.5 m/s) | 2.80 | --- ### 4. Part Number Breakdown The suffix **-C1-R0** provides specific details: * **C1:** Indicates the material and color (Blue Anodized Aluminum). * **R0:** Refers to the revision and packaging standards (RoHS compliant).
