The **ATS-05F-25-C2-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 part number follows a specific nomenclature used by ATS to describe its physical and thermal characteristics. | Parameter | Specification | Details | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum | Lightweight with high thermal conductivity | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | Enhances emissivity and protects against corrosion | | **Attachment Method** | push-PIN™ | Uses a spring-loaded pin for consistent pressure | | **Thermal Resistance** | 6.26°C/W (Unducted) | Measures heat dissipation efficiency | | **Dimensions** | 60mm x 60mm x 25mm | Large surface area for high-power components | | **Fin Style** | XCUT | Cross-cut fins for multi-directional airflow | --- ### 2. Design Characteristics * **XCUT Fin Pattern:** Unlike straight-fin heat sinks, the XCUT design features gaps between fins. This allows air to enter and exit from multiple directions, making it highly effective in systems where airflow direction is inconsistent. * **push-PIN™ Mounting:** This system includes a pre-drilled hole pattern and a spring-loaded mechanism. It ensures the heat sink is pressed firmly against the component, minimizing the air gap and maximizing heat transfer. * **Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This specific model typically comes with **T766** pre-applied. This is a phase-change material that fills microscopic air gaps between the heat sink and the chip. --- ### 3. Usage Context This part is commonly found in industrial electronics, telecommunications hardware, and high-end computing. Due to its size (60mm), it is intended for medium-to-large integrated circuits (ICs) that generate significant heat (approx. 10W - 50W depending on airflow). ---
