On Chip Liquid Cooling in the Future?
Filed in archive Tech News Around The World by Shane McGlaun on April 27, 2006

Purdue University engineers have developed a "micro-pump" that is so small it fits onto a computer chip and can circulate coolant through tiny etched channels on the chips surface. With CPU speeds becoming faster and faster we are quickly nearing the end of air cooling as an effective means of keeping computer chip temperatures within operating range. liquid
cooling is used today in high performance computers, but nothing small enough to actually fit on the computer chip has been devised before. An article about the cooling device will appear int he May issue of Electronics Cooling Magazine.
