The **ATS-19F-182-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 components like CPUs, GPUs, or power transistors to prevent thermal throttling or hardware failure. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table highlights the core characteristics of this part: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Attachment Type** | Push-Pin (Fine Pitch) | | **Dimensions** | 40mm x 40mm x 15mm | | **Thermal Resistance** | 7.48°C/W (Unducted Flow) | | **Fin Style** | Fine-Pitch | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **TIM (Thermal Interface Material)** | Pre-applied Phase Change Material (No TIM) | --- ### 2. Design Breakdown The part number follows a specific nomenclature used by ATS to describe its physical and thermal properties: * **ATS-19F**: Refers to the series and specific manufacturing batch. * **182**: Defines the specific geometry and fin density. * **C1**: Indicates the thermal performance category and material (Aluminum). * **R0**: Refers to the revision and packaging standard. #### Key Component Features: * **Push-Pin Attachment:** This model uses a spring-loaded push-pin mechanism. This ensures consistent pressure on the component (like a processor), which optimizes heat transfer across the interface. * **Fine-Pitch Fins:** The fins are spaced closely together to increase the surface area. This is ideal for systems with high-velocity airflow (forced convection). * **Blue Anodized Coating:** The blue finish isn't just aesthetic; anodization increases the surface emissivity and protects the aluminum from corrosion. --- ### 3. Application Use Cases This specific heat sink is typically found in: 1. **Telecommunications:** Cooling networking switches and routers. 2. **Embedded Systems:** Industrial PCs where space is limited but heat generation is high. 3. **Power Electronics:** Dissipating heat from MOSFETs or voltage regulators. ---
