Integrated pin-fin fansink
28 April 2010
Circuit & System Protection
Cool Innovations has developed a new line of powerful, integrated fansinks. Available in copper and aluminium, they are composed of a pin-fin heatsink and a fan that is embedded into the heatsink’s pin array. This configuration allows for the creation of very low-profile active cooling solutions. The high cooling power generated by the integrated fansinks is a product of the highly efficient nature of the pin-fin heatsinks and the powerful fans used.
The heatsinks possess substantial surface area and are composed of highly conductive materials; the structure is well suited to fansink configurations and the use of round pins generates additional turbulence inside the pin array. The fans used are compact yet powerful in nature, generating 6,1 CFM. The integrated fansink line was specifically designed for applications that are restricted in height, yet require substantial cooling power.
Solutions are available from a minimum overall height of 10,7 mm to a maximum overall height of 16 mm, and as a result are suitable to fit into single-slot PCI Express and ATCA applications or for any other applications that are restricted in height. Integrated fansinks are available in copper and aluminium, and range in footprint from 46 x 46 mm to 104 x 52 mm. They are supplied with a high reliability bracket fan (6,1 CFM, 12 V, 0,2 A).
