As I remember, there was a thread recently about moisture or liquid level sensing. Well, design note in March 30, 2000 issue of EDN mag describes use of a xtal at the bottom of a container of liquid - the frequency changes in relation to depth, ie, pressure. Other than that, few details are given, such as freq variation vs depth, how liquid temperature may be compensated, etc. But interesting .... regards, - Dan Michaels Oricom Technologies ===================
