Zusammenfassung:An apparatus includes a transmitter circuit configured to provide a transmitted waveform at a transmitter output, and a first microstrip differential trace extending from a first microstrip differential trace first end to a first microstrip differential trace second end. A first resistor has a first resistor first end coupled to the transmitter output and a first resistor second end coupled to the first microstrip differential trace first end. A second microstrip differential trace extends from a second microstrip differential trace first end to a second microstrip differential trace second end. A second resistor has a second resistor first end coupled to the transmitter output and a second resistor second end coupled to the second microstrip differential trace first end. A first receiver circuit has a first receiver circuit input coupled to the first microstrip differential trace second end, the first receiver configured to provide a first received signal. A second receiver circuit has a second receiver circuit input coupled to the second microstrip differential trace second end, the second receiver configured to provide a second received signal. A processor may receive the first received signal and the second received signal and perform digital signal processing on the first received signal and the second received signal, detect a coolant leak, and provide an alert upon detection of the coolant leak.
