Transducing components
A transducer is a device that converts energy from one form into another and in the broadest sense even a resistor qualifies for this description since it converts electrical energy into heat energy. We normally reserve the term of transducer, however, for the components in which the conversion is desired and used, and in this book we are concerned only with passive transducers that require no energy supply other than the energy that is being converted. Many of these devices are specialized, and only a broad outline of some of the most common devices will be dealt with in this book for reasons of space. The reader should consult a more specialized text for further information.
