The **ATS-15E-41-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically a **Heatsink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS). It belongs to the **pushPIN™** series, designed for secure and efficient cooling of integrated circuits (ICs) like CPUs, GPUs, or FPGAs. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications Below are the primary physical and thermal characteristics of the part: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Material** | Aluminum (Blue Anodized) | | **Dimensions** | 40mm x 40mm x 25mm | | **Fin Style** | Straight Fin | | **Attachment Type** | pushPIN™ (Spring-loaded) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 10.03 °C/W @ 100 LFM | | **Flow Pattern** | Square / Omnidirectional | | **Compliance** | RoHS and REACH Compliant | --- ### 2. Key Components & Features #### A. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) * **Part Suffix (-R0):** Indicates that the heatsink comes pre-applied with **T766** thermal phase change material. * **Function:** This ensures maximum heat transfer between the electronic component (heat source) and the aluminum base by filling microscopic air gaps. #### B. Attachment Mechanism (pushPIN™) * The assembly uses a **brass push-pin** with a **stainless steel spring**. * **Benefits:** It provides consistent pressure (load) to the component, preventing damage while ensuring optimal thermal contact. #### C. Fin Design * The **Straight Fin** geometry is optimized for vertical or horizontal airflow. * The 25mm height offers a large surface area for heat dissipation without creating excessive "shrouding" or blocking nearby components on the PCB. --- ### 3. Thermal Performance Data Performance varies based on the airflow velocity (measured in Linear Feet per Minute - LFM): | Velocity (LFM) | Thermal Resistance (Unducted) | | :--- | :--- | | 100 (0.5 m/s) | 10.03 °C/W | | 300 (1.5 m/s) | 3.65 °C/W | | 500 (2.5 m/s) | 2.37 °C/W | | 700 (3.5 m/s) | 1.85 °C/W | --- ### 4.
