I believe it is the reverse of a pezo tweeter.  It is very similar anyway.

> Does anybody know how the knock sensor works?  Is it just an accelerometer
set to a characteristic knock frequency?  Because I was thinking of making a
type of home made data acquisition system for my VW. It would be interesting
to see under what conditions predetonation would occur.  As well other types
of engine things. And would probably help in fine tunning.
