Input Transducers - Wilfrid Laurier University
...With electronic-measuring systems, the input transducer converts a quantity to be measured (temperature, humidity, flow rate, weight) into an electrical parameter (voltage, current, resistance, capacitance) that can be processed by an electronic instrument or system....

Transducers | Electronics Club
...Input Transducers convert a quantity to an electrical signal (voltage) or to resistance (which can be converted to voltage). Input transducers are also called sensors. Examples: LDR converts brightness (of light) to resistance. Thermistor converts temperature to resistance. Microphone converts sound to voltage....

Lesson 14 ? Transducers ? ECE 315
...Input transducers convert a physical signal into an electrical signal. For example, a microphone turns sound waves into electrical signals. This conversion is useful if we want to process the vocal signal digitally, or if we want to transmit this signal over a network....

Transducer/Sensor Excitation and Measurement Techniques
...Input transducers, or sensors are classified as either active or passive. Passive sensors, such as thermocouples or photodiodes (in the voltage-output mode) are two-port devices that transform physical energy to electrical energy directly, generating output signals without the need for an excitation source....

Fundamentals of Measurement Transducers and Synchronizers
...Transducers generate precise DC analogue output, typically a current, which corresponds to the measures value. They also give electrical isolation by instrument transformers, which is frequently referred to as ?Galvanic Isolation? and they are located between the input and the output....
