BOYD PF436G TO220 Heatsink, 25°C/W, Aluminium

The BOYD PF436G is a compact plug-in style heatsink specifically engineered for efficient thermal management of semiconductor components. Designed with board-level installation in mind, it provides a reliable and straightforward cooling solution.

Crafted from aluminium, the heatsink features a pre-black anodised finish. This coating not only enhances its corrosion resistance but also improves the thermal emissivity of the surface, aiding in heat dissipation. The design incorporates a solderable tab that is offset from the centre, facilitating easier installation and a secure mechanical connection to the PCB.

Its horizontal mount orientation makes it an ideal fit for applications where space is at a premium. It is specifically suitable for use with TO-220, TO-220-single gauge, and TO-262 semiconductor packages, ensuring a wide range of compatibility for power devices.

A key advantage of this component is its resilience during assembly. As a non-electronic part, its function and integrity are completely unaffected by the normal soldering or reflow processes used in semiconductor circuit manufacturing. This makes it a robust and dependable choice for automated production lines.

With a thermal resistance rating of 25°C/W, it effectively draws heat away from sensitive components, helping to maintain optimal operating temperatures and prolong device lifespan. Its compact dimensions of 19.5mm x 12.7mm x 13mm allow for installation in densely packed electronic assemblies without compromising on cooling performance.
