Question ID: 244782
I am utilizing an attached piezoelectric crystal to measure the small
vibration or high-frequency displacement of an 8-inch long, one inch
on a side, square permanent magnet. What is the highest frequency that
I can measure as an electrical output of the piezoelectric crystal?

It depends on the electrical/mechanical/physical properties of the piezo 
crystal that you use, apart from the loading/sensitivity/thermal
compensation of the sensor electronics.

Quartz piezoelectric crystals have been used to stablize radio
transmitters at over 100,000,000 hertz = CPS, so I should think the
upper limit as a transducer is in that range. As Idavin typed
mechanical linkage limits the usable frequency.  Neil
