ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of the present method and apparatus for detecting leaks in a fluid cooling system enables a user to rapidly detect fluid leaks in the vicinity of a microprocessor chip or other delicate item. In one embodiment, the invention comprises a detector and a border coupled to the detector and disposed peripherally about a protected item (e.g., the microprocessor chip or other delicate item). In one embodiment, the border is a layered structure that is adapted to complete an electrical circuit with the detector when the border comes into contact with fluid.
