The **ATS-08E-19-C2-R0** is a high-performance heat sink manufactured by **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS)**. It is part of the "pushPIN™" family, designed for cooling electronic components such as processors, chipsets, and GPUs. ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table summarizes the key physical and thermal characteristics of the part: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Mounting Type** | pushPIN™ (Spring-loaded) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 9.77 °C/W (at 100 LFM) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 54.00mm x 54.00mm x 20.00mm | | **Pitch** | 47.00mm (hole to hole) | | **Attachment Method** | Push-pins and Springs | --- ### 2. Design Features The component is engineered for efficient heat dissipation in compact electronic environments: * **Heat Sink Geometry:** This model utilizes **straight fins**, which are optimized for unidirectional airflow common in server racks or desktop enclosures. * **pushPIN™ Attachment:** Instead of messy adhesives or simple clips, it uses a mechanical push-pin system. This ensures consistent pressure on the component, improving thermal transfer. * **Blue Anodized Coating:** The surface treatment is not just for aesthetics; it provides protection against corrosion and increases thermal emissivity. * **Thermal Interface Material (TIM):** This part number typically comes with a pre-applied high-performance thermal pad or grease (T412), ensuring there are no air gaps between the heat sink and the chip. --- ### 3. Thermal Performance Analysis Thermal resistance measures how effectively the sink dissipates heat. Lower numbers indicate better performance. | Airflow Velocity (LFM) | Thermal Resistance (°C/W) | | :--- | :--- | | 100 (0.5 m/s) | 9.77 | | 300 (1.5 m/s) | 3.20 | | 500 (2.5 m/s) | 1.83 | | 700 (3.5 m/s) | 1.35 | --- ### 4.
