The **ATS-10B-132-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 that defines its physical and thermal characteristics. | Specification | Details | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions, Inc. (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ HS | | **Material** | Aluminum | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Attachment Method** | Push-pin (Plastic or Brass) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 2.66°C/W (at 1.0 m/s airflow) | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 40.00mm x 40.00mm x 35.00mm | --- ### 2. Design Features The "132" variant belongs to the **MAXMFLOW** or high-performance fin density line. * **Fin Profile:** It utilizes a **cross-cut** or **straight fin** design (depending on the specific sub-series configuration) to maximize surface area while allowing multidirectional airflow. * **Attachment:** The "pushPIN" system uses a spring-loaded mechanism that provides precise pressure for optimal thermal interface material (TIM) performance. * **Material Choice:** Aluminum is used for its excellent thermal conductivity-to-weight ratio. The **Blue Anodized** coating provides corrosion resistance and increased emissivity. --- ### 3. Applications This part is typically found in environments where space is constrained but heat density is high: 1. **Telecommunications:** Cooling of high-speed networking chips. 2. **Embedded Systems:** Industrial PCs and automation controllers. 3. **Power Electronics:** Dissipating heat from VRMs (Voltage Regulator Modules) or MOSFETs. 4. **Computing:** Secondary cooling for chipsets on motherboards. --- ### 4. Thermal Performance Data Performance varies based on the Air Velocity (Measured in Linear Feet per Minute - LFM): | Velocity (LFM) | Velocity (m/s) | Thermal Resistance (°C/W) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 200 | 1.0 | 2.66 | | 400 | 2.0 | 1.39 | | 600 | 3.0 | 1.09 | ---
