The **ATS-19F-76-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 failure. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table details the physical and thermal characteristics of the part: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Base Dimensions** | 25mm x 25mm | | **Height** | 10mm | | **Fin Style** | Straight (Fine Pitch) | | **Attachment Method** | pushPIN™ (Spring-loaded) | --- ### 2. Key Component Features #### A. Thermal Performance The "C1" in the part number indicates a specific thermal resistance profile. This heat sink is optimized for forced air (airflow from a fan) rather than natural convection. * **Thermal Resistance:** Low resistance value, meaning it transfers heat efficiently from the component to the surrounding air. #### B. pushPIN™ Attachment System Instead of using messy thermal adhesives or simple clips, this model uses a **pushPIN™** mechanism. * **Components:** It includes a brass or plastic pin and a high-performance compression spring. * **Benefit:** Provides consistent pressure across the thermal interface material (TIM), ensuring maximum heat transfer and secure mechanical mounting. #### C. Material and Coating * **Aluminum 6063:** Chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity and lightweight properties. * **Blue Anodized Finish:** Not just for aesthetics; the anodization protects the aluminum from corrosion and slightly increases emissivity for better radiant heat transfer. --- ### 3. Usage Context This specific footprint (25mm x 25mm) is commonly used for: * **Embedded Systems:** Small form-factor industrial PCs. * **Networking Gear:** Cooling ASICs in switches or routers. * **Power Electronics:** Dissipating heat from MOSFETs or voltage regulators. --- ### 4. Part Number Breakdown The part number can be decoded as follows: * **ATS:** Advanced Thermal Solutions (Manufacturer). * **19:** Series identifier. * **F:** Fin pitch/type. * **76:** Specific dimension/geometry code. * **C1:** Thermal performance/material grade. * **R0:** Revision code or RoHS compliance indicator.
