..before I start hunting i thought I'd check and see if anyone knew....

any idea which depth sensors (pressure transducers) are used in dive computers/rebreather controllers?

Not too sure which ones are used by Suunto etc, but the Measurement Specialties sensors seem to be commonly used in the DIY ROV systems I've seen, as well as some of the open source designs. There's quite a range of parts, all well documented here (//http://www.meas-spec.com/pressure-sensors/board-level-pressure-sensors/digital-pressure-sensor-modules.aspx), and the prices I've seen are not exactly extortionate.
