ABSTRACT:
A combined vibration and temperature sensor for an internal combustion engine comprises a piezoelectric disc in mechanical and thermal contact with an engine throttle body and connected electrically in series with an impedance effective to form a voltage divider having a predetermined normalized voltage output at a reference temperature and 50 kilohertz. A 50 kilohertz voltage source is connected across the voltage divider and the vibration signal output provides a temperature signal at 50 kilohertz and an engine vibration signal at a lower frequency such as 5-7 kilohertz.
