The **ATS-07D-182-C2-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 power transistors to prevent thermal throttling or hardware failure. ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number follows a specific nomenclature used by ATS to describe its physical and thermal properties. | Specification | Details | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions, Inc. (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push-Pin (Plastic or Brass) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 7.51°C/W (Unducted Flow @ 100 LFM) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 40.00mm x 40.00mm x 15.00mm | --- ### 2. Key Features and Components #### A. Thermal Performance The "C2" in the part number indicates a specific thermal profile. The heat sink uses a **cross-cut fin design**, which increases surface area and allows for multi-directional airflow. This makes it highly efficient in compact enclosures where airflow direction might vary. #### B. The pushPIN™ Mounting System Unlike adhesive tapes or heavy screws, this model uses a spring-loaded push-pin mechanism: * **Compression Springs:** Ensure consistent pressure (force) between the heat sink and the component, optimizing the thermal interface. * **Ease of Install:** Allows for quick, tool-free installation into pre-drilled holes on the PCB. #### C. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) This specific part usually comes with **pre-applied T766 phase change material** or a similar high-performance thermal pad. This eliminates the need for manual application of thermal paste and ensures a bubble-free contact layer. --- ### 3.
