In the world of science and technology, power transducers play an important role. The transducer itself is a device that converts energy from one form into another form. The device receives a signal in the form of one type of energy and then converts it to a signal in another form.
The most popular classes of transducers are being used and these produce an electric output signal. For example microphones and photoelectric cells. Also a mental note to be taken is that the device is usually, electrical, electronic, electro-mechanical, electromagnetic, photonic or photovoltaic converts one type of energy or physical attribute to another for different purposes which include measurement or to transfer information. There are times when the term transducer is commonly used in two senses, in that the sensor is used to detect the parameter in one form and report it another. This can be electrical or digital signal.
Still others are popularly used to accept electric input. These include loudspeakers, light bulbs, and solenoids. There are times when the term transducer is applied to devices that produce an output in the same form as their inputs and these are transformers and filters.
There are different types of devices that function in different ways while still doing what it is created to do. For example, an acoustic transducer, such as a microphone transforms sound waves into electronic signals. It relies on the stimuli of the sound waves in order to make the proper conversion in that needed signal. The audio loudspeaker converts electrical voltage variations representing music or speech, to mechanical cone vibration that vibrates air molecules creating acoustical energy. There are electromagnetic transducers such as: The famous antenna which converts electromagnetic waves into electric current and vice versa. There's the Fluorescent lamp, light bulb that converts electrical power into visible light. The cathode ray tube (CRT) converts electrical signals into visual form.
One form of Power Transducer to take note of is the electrical transducer, which is usually classified as active or passive. Active transducers generate electric current directly in response to stimulation. Passive transducers are able to produce a change in some passive electrical quantity and resistance as a result of stimulation. Passive transducers can at times require additional electrical energy.
There are power measurement products that aid transducers in converting energy faster, providing more efficiency for the work project efforts required to complete the work at hand. The more efficient and clear the conversion process the better the transducer can work. Hence, this gives them the name power transducer.
