The **ATS-01B-53-C2-R0** is a specific electronic component manufactured by **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)**. It is part of their "pushPIN™" series and is technically classified as a **High-Performance Heat Sink** designed for cooling electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, or high-power chipsets. Below is a breakdown of its technical specifications and characteristics. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications This heat sink is designed for specific thermal resistance and spatial constraints. | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic or Brass) | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Thermal Resistance** | 8.57°C/W (Unducted Flow @ 100 LFM) | | **Dimensions** | 35.00mm x 35.00mm x 30.00mm | --- ### 2. Physical Design Features The part number encodes specific physical attributes of the device: * **Fins (Straight Fin Profile):** The "53" in the part number indicates a specific fin pattern designed to maximize surface area while allowing air to flow through with minimal pressure drop. * **Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This part usually comes pre-applied with **T766** thermal phase change material, which ensures efficient heat transfer between the chip and the aluminum base. * **Compression Springs:** It uses a "Precise Force" spring system to ensure even pressure across the component, preventing damage to the silicon die while maintaining contact. --- ### 3. Application and Usage This component is typically found in: 1. **Telecommunications:** Cooling signal processors in base stations. 2. **Embedded Systems:** Industrial PCs where space is limited but heat generation is high. 3. **Networking:** Switches and routers where consistent airflow is available. ### 4. Part Number Breakdown The nomenclature can be interpreted as follows: * **ATS:** Manufacturer (Advanced Thermal Solutions). * **01:** Attachment Type (Push-Pin). * **B:** Material (Aluminum). * **53:** Specific Fin Design/Geometry. * **C2:** Thermal Performance Class/Material Grade. * **R0:** Revision code (Standard RoHS compliant version). ---
