The **ATS-07F-20-C2-R0** is a high-performance **heat sink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS). It is designed to dissipate heat from electronic components, such as CPUs, GPUs, or power transistors, to prevent thermal throttling or hardware failure. ### 1. Technical Specifications | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 7.14°C/W (at 100 LFM) | | **Dimensions** | 54.00mm x 54.00mm | | **Height** | 25.00mm | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Thermal Interface Material** | T766 (Pre-applied) | --- ### 2. Key Design Components #### A. Fin Geometry (Cross-Cut) The "F" in the part number indicates a **fine-pitch** or specific fin configuration. The cross-cut design increases surface area and creates turbulence in the airflow, which improves heat transfer efficiency compared to standard straight-fin heat sinks. #### B. pushPIN™ Attachment System Instead of using messy adhesives or complex clips, this part uses a **spring-loaded push-pin** mechanism. - **Benefits:** Provides consistent pressure (clamping force) on the component for optimal thermal contact. - **Hardware:** Usually involves a brass or plastic pin with a stainless steel spring. #### C. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) The unit comes with **T766** pre-applied to the base. This is a phase-change or high-performance thermal grease that fills microscopic air gaps between the component and the heat sink base, ensuring maximum heat flow. --- ### 3. Thermal Performance Profile The effectiveness of the ATS-07F-20-C2-R0 depends on the airflow (measured in Linear Feet per Minute - LFM): | Airflow (LFM) | Thermal Resistance (°C/W) | | :--- | :--- | | **100** | 7.14 | | **200** | 2.42 | | **300** | 1.40 | | **500** | 0.94 | --- ### 4.
