The **ATS-06F-206-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 integrated circuits (ICs) like BGA, FPGA, and CPUs. ### Technical Specifications | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic or Brass) | | **Dimensions (L x W)** | 60.00mm x 60.00mm | | **Height** | 12.00mm (Low Profile) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 7.71°C/W (Unducted Flow @ 100 LFM) | | **Fin Style** | XCUT (Cross-cut) | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | --- ### Key Electronic & Physical Attributes #### 1. Heat Dissipation Efficiency The "XCUT" fin design provides a cross-cut pattern. This is critical for electronics housed in enclosures with inconsistent airflow directions. It allows air to enter and exit from multiple angles, maximizing the cooling surface area relative to its low profile. #### 2. Mounting Mechanism: pushPIN™ Instead of using messy thermal adhesives or tapes, this part utilizes a **Push-Pin** system. * **Tension Spring:** Ensures constant pressure between the heat sink and the electronic chip. * **Reliability:** This provides better thermal interface material (TIM) performance compared to "peel-and-stick" solutions. #### 3. Material and Coating * **Aluminum 6063:** Chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity and lightweight properties. * **Blue Anodized Finish:** This is not just for aesthetics; the anodization layer provides surface protection against corrosion and increases thermal emissivity. --- ### Common Applications This specific part is typically used on high-power electronic components where vertical space is limited: * **Networking Equipment:** Routers and high-speed switches. * **Industrial PCs:** Compact motherboards and embedded systems. * **Power Supplies:** Cooling MOSFETs or power regulators.
