GENERAL DESCRIPTION
It senses knock and transmits information to the electronic engine management control unit. This influences process control in the engine, for example timing and fuel injection until knock is eliminated. The capacitive sensor is biased via resistors to a voltage level of VDDA/2. 2 Key FEATURES
