The **ATS-19F-41-C3-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically a **Heat Sink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS). It is designed for cooling electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, and high-power chipsets. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The model number encodes specific physical and thermal characteristics: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Series** | pushPIN™ Heat Sink | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic) | | **Dimensions (L x W)** | 45mm x 45mm | | **Height** | 20mm | | **Fin Pitch** | Fine (High density for airflow) | | **Thermal Resistance** | Approx. 10.07 °C/W (at 100 LFM) | | **Thermal Interface Material (TIM)** | T412 (Pre-applied) | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | --- ### 2. Key Components & Design Features #### A. The Fin Geometry The "F" in the part number indicates a **Fine Pitch** fin structure. These are straight-fin heat sinks designed for "forced air" environments (where a fan is present). The high surface area allows for maximum heat dissipation into the moving air. #### B. Attachment System (pushPIN™) Instead of using messy adhesives or thermal tape, this part uses a **push-pin and spring** assembly. * **Benefits:** Ensures consistent pressure (clamping force) against the chip, improving thermal transfer. * **Reliability:** It is shock and vibration resistant, making it ideal for industrial or automotive electronics. #### C. Thermal Interface Material (T412) The unit comes with **T412** pre-applied to the base. This is a phase-change or high-performance thermal grease that fills the microscopic air gaps between the heat sink base and the electronic component, significantly reducing thermal resistance. --- ### 3. Application Use Cases This specific heat sink is commonly found in: * **Networking Equipment:** Routers and switches with high-speed processors. * **Embedded Systems:** Industrial PCs where reliability is paramount. * **Power Supplies:** Cooling MOSFETs or power ICs. ---
