The **ATS-06F-36-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 hardware failure. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number follows a specific nomenclature that defines its physical and thermal characteristics. | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Attachment Type** | Push-Pin (Plastic) | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Fin Type** | Straight Fin | | **Fin Pitch** | Fine Pitch | | **Dimensions (L x W)** | 36.83mm x 36.83mm | | **Height** | 15.00mm | | **Thermal Resistance** | 14.82°C/W (at 100 LFM) | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | --- ### 2. Key Components & Design The "electronic" functionality of this part is passive, relying on thermodynamics to manage heat. * **Heat Sink Body:** Constructed from high-grade aluminum. The straight-fin design provides a large surface area for air to pass through, facilitating convective cooling. * **Push-Pin Attachment:** This model uses a specialized push-pin mechanism. It includes a compression spring that provides the precise amount of force (pressure) required to ensure a secure fit against the electronic component. * **Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This specific model (C2) usually comes with **T766** phase-change material or similar pre-applied. The TIM fills microscopic air gaps between the component and the heat sink to maximize heat transfer. --- ### 3. Thermal Performance Data Performance is measured by Thermal Resistance (°C/W). Lower values indicate better cooling efficiency. | Air Velocity (LFM) | Thermal Resistance (Unducted) | | :--- | :--- | | 100 (0.5 m/s) | 14.82 °C/W | | 300 (1.5 m/s) | 5.96 °C/W | | 500 (2.5 m/s) | 4.42 °C/W | | 700 (3.5 m/s) | 3.77 °C/W | --- ### 4.
