Abstract

In one example a liquid level sensor is described. The sensor includes a carrier and a liquid level sensing interface disposed on the carrier. The liquid level sensing interface includes a number of liquid level sensing devices disposed on an elongated strip. The number of liquid level sensing devices detect a liquid level in a liquid container. The liquid level sensing interface also includes a number of thermal isolation components formed on the elongated strip to thermally isolate adjacent liquid level sensing devices.
