The **ATS-10F-41-C2-R0** is a high-performance electronic thermal management component, specifically an **Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) push-pin heatsink**. These components are critical in electronics to dissipate heat from integrated circuits (ICs), CPUs, or GPUs to prevent thermal throttling or hardware failure. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Advanced Thermal Solutions (ATS) | | **Series** | pushPIN™ | | **Material** | Aluminum (AL6063) | | **Finish** | Blue Anodized | | **Dimensions (L x W x H)** | 40.00mm x 40.00mm x 20.00mm | | **Attachment Method** | Push-pin (with Brass Spring) | | **Thermal Resistance** | 10.03 °C/W (Unducted @ 100 LFM) | | **Thermal Interface Material (TIM)** | T766 (Pre-applied) | --- ### 2. Key Component Features * **Finned Design:** The "41" in the part number corresponds to a specific fin configuration. The design uses a **straight-fin** or **cross-cut** geometry (depending on the specific sub-series) optimized for either natural convection or forced airflow. * **Push-Pin Mounting:** Unlike adhesive-based heatsinks, this model uses a mechanical push-pin system. This provides consistent pressure for better thermal contact and allows for easier removal or rework. * **T766 Thermal Interface:** The unit comes with a pre-applied phase-change material or thermal pad (T766), ensuring low thermal resistance between the component and the heatsink without the need for manual paste application. * **Anodized Coating:** The blue anodization is not just for aesthetics; it increases surface emissivity and provides corrosion resistance and electrical insulation. --- ### 3. Thermal Performance (C/W) Thermal resistance indicates how effectively the part moves heat away from the silicon. Lower numbers are better. | Airflow (LFM) | 100 (0.5m/s) | 300 (1.5m/s) | 500 (2.5m/s) | 700 (3.5m/s) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Resistance (Unducted)** | 10.03 | 3.65 | 2.11 | 1.59 | | **Resistance (Ducted)** | 2.26 | 1.48 | 1.25 | 1.11 | --- ### 4.
