Answer the following questions. ⑴ A transducer is a device that converts one form of energy or physical quantity into something new or more useful. ⑵ Active transducers are those devices that generate voltage due to some form of physical change. Passive transducers respond to a measurand by altering some physical property. A passive transducer must be energized by an external source in order for it to function. ⑶ Active transducers are usually used as the energy source of an electrical signal. ⑷ These methods are electrostatic, electrochemical, electromechanical, photovoltaic, piezoelectric, and thermoelectric. ⑸ Passive transducers are often described by the electrical property being controlled. ⑹ In passive transducer operational theory, the electrical property being altered and the method of changing this property are important concepts. Exercises (continue) 2. Replace the underlined parts in the following sentences with words or phrases from the text that best keep the original meanings. Bar coding (条形码) is mainly used for automatic identification today. (primarily) The Hall-effect (霍尔效应) principle is the operational basis of an active transducer that implements the detection of changes in magnetic field strength. (achieves) Thermistors act as an RTD, except they have a negative temperature coefficient and a nonlinear resistance-temperature relationship. (respond) Voltage is induc
