The **ATS-19E-89-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically a **Heat Sink** manufactured by Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS). It is part of the "push pin" attachment series designed for cooling integrated circuits (ICs) and PCB components. --- ### ## Technical Specifications Below are the primary electronic and mechanical specifications for this part: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Part Number** | ATS-19E-89-C2-R0 | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic/Brass) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 3.94 °C/W (at 200 LFM) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 35.00mm x 35.00mm x 30.00mm | | **Fin Style** | Straight Fin | --- ### ## Key Electronic Components & Design The "electronic" functionality of this part is passive, focusing on heat dissipation to prevent thermal throttling or component failure. #### 1. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) The part usually comes pre-applied with **ATS-PPS-19**, a high-performance thermal interface material. This ensures that the microscopic gaps between the electronic chip (CPU/GPU/FPGA) and the heat sink are filled, maximizing heat transfer. #### 2. Airflow Efficiency The straight-fin design is optimized for **undirected airflow**. In electronic enclosures where fans are placed at the chassis level, the spacing between the fins allows air to pass through with minimal pressure drop, cooling the underlying semiconductor. #### 3. Attachment Mechanism The "C2" in the part number indicates the specific spring/push-pin combination. This is critical for electronics because: * It provides **consistent pressure** across the chip surface. * It prevents damage to the delicate solder balls (BGA) beneath the chip. --- ### ## Application Use Cases This specific heat sink is typically found in the following electronic environments: * **Networking Hardware:** Routers, switches, and gateways. * **Embedded Systems:** Industrial controllers and IoT hubs. * **Power Electronics:** Dissipating heat from VRMs (Voltage Regulator Modules).
