noun
- 1. a device that converts variations in a physical quantity, such as pressure or brightness, into an electrical signal, or vice versa.
A transducer is an electronic device that converts energy from one form to another. The process of converting energy from one form to another is known as transduction. Some common examples of transducers include loudspeakers, microphones, thermometers and LEDs. Why do we need a transducer?
A device that converts one type of energy or signal into another. For example, a microphone is a transducer that converts sound waves into electric impulses; an electric motor is a transducer that converts electricity into mechanical energy.
Transducer, device that converts input energy into output energy, the latter usually differing in kind but bearing a known relation to input. Originally, the term referred to a device that converted mechanical stimuli into electrical output, but it has been broadened to include devices that sense.

May 8, 2017 · noun. ( Electrical engineering: Computing and control) A transducer is an electronic device that converts energy from one form to another, just as a microphone converts sound to electrical energy. The input device, with a transducer in it, senses the quantity under measurement and changes it to a proportional electrical signal.
Transducer definition: a device that receives a signal in the form of one type of energy and converts it to a signal in another form. See examples of TRANSDUCER used in a sentence.
