The **ATS-52270G-C1-R0** is a high-performance heat sink manufactured by **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)**. It is specifically designed for cooling high-heat electronic components such as BGA (Ball Grid Array) chips, CPUs, and GPUs. --- ### Technical Specifications | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Part Number** | ATS-52270G-C1-R0 | | **Heat Sink Type** | maxiFLOW™ (High Performance) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 27.00mm x 27.00mm x 12.50mm | | **Attachment Method** | maxiGRIP™ (Frame Clip) | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Thermal Resistance** | 5.20°C/W @ 200 LFM (Airflow) | --- ### Key Components and Features #### 1. maxiFLOW™ Design The heat sink features a unique **flared fin geometry**. Unlike standard straight fins, these fins expand outward. This design maximizes the surface area for heat dissipation while increasing the efficiency of airflow passing through the fins. #### 2. maxiGRIP™ Attachment System This is a critical "electronic part" of the assembly. It consists of: * **Plastic Frame Clip:** A high-strength clip that snaps around the component. * **Stainless Steel "Steady Drive" Spring:** Provides consistent, high-pressure force (roughly 15-20 PSI) to ensure optimal contact between the chip and the heat sink. * **Ease of Maintenance:** This system allows the heat sink to be detached and reattached without damaging the PCB (unlike epoxy adhesives). #### 3. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) The unit comes pre-assembled with a high-performance **Phase Change Material (PCM)**. * **Function:** It fills the microscopic air gaps between the chip surface and the heat sink base. * **Result:** Significantly lowers the thermal resistance at the contact point. --- ### Applications The ATS-52270G-C1-R0 is typically used in space-constrained electronic environments where reliability is paramount: * **Telecommunications:** Networking switches and routers. * **Industrial Computing:** Embedded systems. * **Automotive:** ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) modules.
