The **ATS-08F-47-C2-R0** is a specific electronic cooling component manufactured by **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)**. It belongs to their high-performance "push pin" heat sink series designed for cooling integrated circuits (ICs) like CPUs, GPUs, or FPGAs. --- ## 1. Technical Specifications Below are the primary physical and thermal characteristics of the component: | Feature | Specification | |:---|:---| | **Part Number** | ATS-08F-47-C2-R0 | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic) | | **Spring Type** | Compression Spring | | **Dimensions (L x W)** | 25mm x 25mm | | **Height** | 20mm | | **Thermal Interface Material (TIM)** | T766 (Pre-applied) | --- ## 2. Component Breakdown ### A. Material and Design The heat sink is made of **Aluminum 6063**, which offers high thermal conductivity while remaining lightweight. The **Blue Anodized** finish is not just aesthetic; it provides a layer of protection against corrosion and slightly improves radiant heat emission. ### B. The "Push-Pin" Mechanism Unlike adhesive-based heat sinks, the "R0" version uses a mechanical fastening system: - **Plastic Push-Pins:** These snap into pre-drilled holes on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). - **Compression Springs:** These ensure constant downward pressure on the component, improving contact with the heat source and preventing the heat sink from shifting during vibration. ### C. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) The part comes with **T766** pre-applied to the base. This is a "Phase Change" material that fills microscopic air gaps between the chip and the heat sink once it reaches operating temperature, significantly reducing thermal resistance. --- ## 3. Thermal Performance Indicators Performance varies based on airflow (measured in Linear Feet per Minute - LFM): | Airflow (LFM) | Thermal Resistance (°C/W) | |:---|:---| | 200 (1.0 m/s) | ~9.03 | | 400 (2.0 m/s) | ~5.47 | | 600 (3.0 m/s) | ~4.20 | --- ## 4. Part Number Decoder Understanding the "ATS" nomenclature: - **ATS-08**: Series identifier. - **F**: Fin pattern/density. - **47**: Height/Dimension code. - **C2**: Material/Finish code (Blue Anodized). - **R0**: Revision/Attachment type (Push-pin). ---
