Transducers
All of us made significant contributions to
the world. We do a lot of preparations in order to fulfill the spaces between
us and to be ready to face the challenging world. Sometimes, we don’t notice
that we are the persons
who bring great changes to the society because of the way we live in this
world. We are the one who converts the lives of the other people because of the
role given to us in the society. This can also be associated in the field of
electronics. There are some devices which became a converter. These devices are
called transducers. Transducers are known to be devices which convert one form
of energy to another. As we all know there are many types of energy such as
chemical, electrical, thermal, heat, light, mechanical, static energy, nuclear
energy and many others. All of these types of energy can be converted from one
form to another because of the invention of transducers. In order to detect
signals, transducers used sensors. It is embedded in them.
Common Types
of Transducers
1. Electrochemical transducers
These are devices that convert
electrical energy into chemical energy and vice versa. Some examples for these
are the following:
PH Probe Molecular
electric transducer (MET) Battery
2. Electro acoustic transducers
These are devices that convert
acoustic phenomena into electricity and vice versa. One of the examples is a
microphone.
3. Electromagnetic transducers
These are devices that use the
magnetic field to have electric energy and vice versa. One example is a
magnetic cartridge.
4.
Electrostatic transducers
These
are devices that convert static energy into electrical energy and vice versa.
One of the examples is Van de Graaff generator.
5. Electromechanical transducers
These are devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy
and vice versa. One of the examples is a galvanometer.
Other Types
of Transducers
1. Photoelectric transducers
These are devices that convert photos or light
energy into electrical energy and vice versa. An example for these is a light
bulb.
2. Thermoelectric transducers
These are devices that convert heat energy
into electrical energy and vice versa. A example for these is a thermocouple.
