Abstract :
This paper is concerned with measurement of knock sensors. Knock sensor is a piezoelecectric sensor and it is used as a component of the car engine. It produces an output voltage in proportion to the vibrations. In this paper, there are shown measurements of the voltage sensitivity and the frequency response, which are necessary for using the knock sensor.
