The **ATS-17G-75-C1-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 high-power semiconductors. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number follows a specific nomenclature that defines its physical and thermal characteristics. | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Base Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic or Brass) | | **Dimensions** | 25mm x 25mm x 10mm | | **Thermal Resistance** | 14.95°C/W (at 100 LFM) | | **Flow Pattern** | Straight Fin | --- ### 2. Physical Design Features * **Straight Fin Geometry:** This design allows for consistent airflow through the fins, making it ideal for systems with directed air movement (forced convection). * **Low Profile:** With a height of only 10mm, it is suitable for tight spaces in server racks, telecommunications gear, or compact embedded systems. * **Push-Pin Attachment:** Instead of messy thermal glue or tape, this part uses a mechanical push-pin and spring mechanism. This provides: * **Consistent Pressure:** Ensures optimal contact with the chip for better heat transfer. * **Ease of Rework:** Can be removed and reattached easily during maintenance. --- ### 3. Material and Finish The component is made from **Aluminum 6063**, which offers a balance between thermal conductivity and weight. The **Blue Anodized finish** serves two purposes: 1. **Corrosion Resistance:** Protects the aluminum from oxidation. 2. **Increased Emissivity:** Slightly improves the radiative heat transfer compared to raw aluminum. --- ### 4. Thermal Performance The efficiency of this heat sink is highly dependent on the airflow (measured in Linear Feet per Minute - LFM): | Airflow (LFM) | Thermal Resistance (°C/W) | | :--- | :--- | | 100 (Natural/Low) | 14.95 | | 200 | 7.62 | | 500 | 4.32 | ---
