Announcement of new "Mini" Heat Sinks (15-25mm(0.59" to 1.00") square base size)

Alpha has expanded its wide range of off-the-shelf products to support increasing requests for smaller sized heat sinks.

The new heat sinks are available from 15 mm (0.59"") to 25 mm (1.00"") square base size. Several fin patterns are available to suit different application conditions. For example, the LPD series has been designed for applications with dense heat sink populations and/or heat sinks in series, where getting enough air through the system has become a problem. In contrast, the Z Series heat sinks have a dense pattern, with fin thickness of 0.35mm to maximize the surface area and performance.

  Product name Base size (mm) Height (mm) Description
Z series Z25-**B 25 x 25 6.3 / 9.5 / 12.7 0.35mm fin thickness low profile heat sink Maximum surface area.
Z19-**B 19 x 19 6.3 / 9.5 / 12.7
UB series UB25-**B 25 x 25 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 0.55mm thickness fins high performance heat sink
UB19-**B 19 x 19 10 / 15 / 20 / 25
LPD series LPD25-**B 25 x 25 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 Low Pressure Drop Heat sinks for highly populated system
LPD19-**B 19 x 19 10 / 15 / 20 / 25
W series W15-**B 15 x 15 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 Smallest elliptical fin heat sinks

The heat sinks are made of high thermal conductivity A6063 aluminum alloy. The heat sinks are manufactured using Alpha's MicroForgingR process. The fins and the base are forged from one solid piece of aluminum under tremendous pressure, completely eliminating any performance-robbing interface between the base and fins.
