The **ATS-05D-71-C2-R0** is a specific model of a **High-Performance Heat Sink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions, Inc. (ATS). It is designed to dissipate heat from electronic components like CPUs, GPUs, and power transistors. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table outlines the physical and thermal properties of this specific part: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 45mm x 45mm x 30mm | | **Fin Style** | Straight Fin | | **Attachment Method** | pushPIN™ (Spring Loaded) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 6.67° C/W (at 100 LFM) | | **Thermal Interface Material** | T766 (Pre-applied) | --- ### 2. Key Electronic Features #### A. Thermal Management As electronic components operate, they generate heat. The ATS-05D-71-C2-R0 acts as a passive cooling solution that increases the surface area of the component. The **6.67° C/W thermal resistance** indicates how efficiently it transfers heat from the silicon die to the surrounding air. #### B. pushPIN™ Attachment System This part uses a proprietary mechanical attachment system rather than adhesive. This is critical for electronics that experience: * **Vibration:** Securely holds the heat sink in place during transport or industrial use. * **Thermal Expansion:** The spring-loaded pins allow for microscopic movement as materials heat up and cool down, preventing PCB warping. #### C. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) The part comes with **T766** pre-applied. In electronics, the TIM is vital because it fills microscopic air gaps between the component and the heat sink, ensuring maximum heat conductivity. --- ### 3. Usage Context This part is typically used in the following electronic environments: 1. **Telecommunications:** Cooling of high-speed networking chips. 2. **Industrial PC (IPC):** Ensuring processors do not thermal-throttle in enclosed spaces. 3. **Power Electronics:** Managing heat for large MOSFETs or IGPT modules. ---
