Pin Fin Heatsinks Occupy Little Board Space

May 1, 2001

With footprints as small as 0.35" x 0.35", the miniature UltraCool III pin fin heatsinks for surface-mount components are claimed as the first non sheet-metal type device, offering footprints smaller than 0.15". The devices range in size from 0.35" x 0.35" to 1.25" x 1.25" and from a height of 0.15" to 0.7".
Three standard pin densities and an infinite number of combinations within these limits are feasible.
