BLOCK DIAGRAM OF
4 TRANSDUCERS
• Transducer contains two parts that are closely
related to each other i.e. the sensing element and
transduction element.
• The sensing element is called as the sensor. It is
device producing measurable response to change
in physical conditions.
• The transduction element convert the sensor output
to suitable electrical form.

7 CLASSIFICATION OF
TRANSDUCERS
• Analog and digital transducers.
• Primary and secondary transducer.
• Transducers and inverse transducers.
• On the basis of transduction

used.
• Active and Passive Transducers
Classification of Transducers
8
Transducers may be classified according
to their application, method of energy
conversion, nature of the output signal,
and so on.
Transducers
Inductive
Resistive
ANALOG AND DIGITAL TRANSDUCERS
9 Transducers ,on the basis of nature of output signal, may be
classified into analog and digital transducers.

18 Electromagnetic transduction:
In electromagnetic transduction, the measurand is converted to
voltage induced in conductor by change in the magnetic flux,
in absence of excitation.
The electromagnetic transducer are self generating active
transducers
The motion between a piece of magnet and an electromagnet
is responsible for the change in flux
19 Inductance Transduction:
In inductive transduction, the measurand is converted
into a change in the self inductance of a single coil. It
is achieved by displacing the core of the coil that is
attached to a mechanical sensing element
Piezoelectric Transduction:
In piezoelectric induction the measurand is converted
into a change in electrostatic charge q or voltage V
generated by crystals when it is mechanically
stressed.

Photovoltaic Transduction:
Photoconductive Transduction:
Resistance
Temperature
• The higher the temperature at the junction, the greater the voltage
produced by that junction.
Curie-Weiss Law
There is a transition temperature at which ferromagnetic
materials exhibit paramagnetic behavior
Photoconductive Effect
When light strikes certain semiconductor materials, the
resistance of the material decreases (e.g. photoresistor)

3.0 TRANSDUCERS SELECTION
FACTORS

1. Operating Principle: The transducer are many times selected on the basis
of operating principle used by them. The operating principle used may be
resistive, inductive, capacitive , optoelectronic, piezo electric etc.
