ATS-15D-139-C1-R0

Thermal management is a critical aspect of any electronic design. Heat sinks are an important component of any thermal management system, as they serve to transfer heat away from the electronics and dissipate it into the environment. The ATS-15D-139-C1-R0 is a aluminum heat sink from Apex Thermal Solutions that is designed for maximum thermal dissipation while maintaining a low profile for tight spaces. This heat sink is used in a wide variety of applications across numerous industries, and its functionality is based on basic heat transfer principles.

The ATS-15D-139-C1-R0 is designed with a basic single-fin structure, using extruded aluminum alloy. This fin structure provides a large surface area that is exposed to the ambient air, allowing heat to be dissipated into the environment. The aluminum material of the heat sink is also efficient at conducting heat away from the heat source and onto the aluminum fins. By adding thermal grease or other phase change materials between the heat source surface and the heat sink, the transfer of heat between the two is maximized.

The ATS-15D-139-C1-R0 is designed for use in applications with limited space, and measures only 15 mm x 139 mm x 13 mm, making it easily mountable in limited-space environments. This is beneficial, as the smaller size allows for fewer components to be used to mount the heat sink. The small size also reduces cost, as fewer components are needed to mount the heat sink. Additionally, the aluminum alloy heat sink also offers low thermal resistance, allowing it to effectively dissipate heat from smaller heat sources.

In addition, the ATS-15D-139-C1-R0 is designed with air vents at the top and bottom of the heat sink, which allow air to pass through as the heat dissipates. This helps to further reduce the total thermal resistance of the heat sink, as the air flow helps to increase the amount of heat that is transferred away from the electronics. The open top and bottom also help to reduce the risk of further building up of heat within the heat sink itself, as the circulating air helps to keep the heat sink cool.

The ATS-15D-139-C1-R0 is used in a variety of applications, including power stages, regulators, microcontrollers, and other electronics systems. It is ideal for these applications, as the small size and low thermal resistance allow for maximum thermal dissipation while minimizing the need for additional components. Additionally, its low profile allows for mounting the heat sink in tight spaces, while its air vents help to further increase heat dissipation. As such, the ATS-15D-139-C1-R0 is one of the most popular aluminum heat sinks from Apex Thermal Solutions.
