Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for measuring the liquid level within a reservoir based on the buoyancy force that the liquid imparts to a float member. a float member is at least partially submerged into a liquid in a reservoir. The float member is configured, upon being at least partially submerged into the liquid to a depth, to have a buoyancy force exerted thereon by the liquid that is proportional to the depth. The buoyancy force is transferred from the float member to a sensor, via a force transfer mechanism that is movable relative to the float member and the sensor.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to pressure sensors. In one illustrative embodiment, the pressure sensor may include a pressure sensor assembly having pressure ports on opposite sides of the pressure sensor assembly. The pressure sensor may include a protective housing including a first housing member and a second housing member defining a cavity for securely housing the pressure sensor assembly. The protective housing may include a first port coupled to one of the pressure ports of the pressure sensor assembly and a second port coupled to the other pressure port of the pressure sensor assembly. In some cases, the protective housing may include one or more aligning features, one or more positioning features, and a boss, which can include two or more bumps, on each side of the cavity around the pressure ports.

Abstract: A closed loop magnetic sensor system for measuring an input magnetic field from a magnetic field source has a compensation circuit, which can be for example a printed wire board, and a magnetic sensor, such as a Magnetoresistive (MR) sensor, for measuring an input magnetic field. Preferably, the magnetic sensor is magnetically coupled to the compensation circuit by arranging the magnetic sensor in an air gap provided in the compensation circuit. The compensation circuit has a compensating conductor, arranged on or in a dielectric medium, which can be configured as a plurality of nested coils. Electrical control circuitry, electrically, coupled to the magnetic sensor and compensating conductor, is adapted and arranged to drive a feedback current through the compensating conductor according to the output of the magnetic sensor such that the input magnetic field is substantially compensated at the magnetic sensor. The magnetic system can serve as current sensor for sensing current through a primary conductor.
