Transducers Engineering

Principles, Designs and Applications

In recent years, Transducers Engineering is being used extensively in sensor, Electronics measurements and Instrumentation and signal processing research and many other things. This rapid progress in Electronic Measurement & Instrumentation has created an increasing demand for trained Electronics Engineering personnel. There are various electrical and electronic components are used to build the circuits and projects for engineering students. The components are active and passive components, sensors, transducers, transmitters, receivers, modules (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GSM, RFID, GPS), and so on. In general, the process of transduction involves the conversion of one form of energy into another form. This process mainly includes a sensing element to sense the input energy and then converting it into another form by a transduction element. Measured tell to the property, quantity or state that the transducer look to translate into an electrical output. A transducer is an electrical device which is used to convert one form of energy into another form. In general, these devices deal with different types of energies such as mechanical, electrical energy, light energy, chemical energy, thermal energy, acoustic energy, electromagnetic energy, and so on. This book is intended for the undergraduate and postgraduate students specializing in Electronics Engineering. It will also serve as reference material for engineers employed in industry. The fundamental concepts and principles behind Electronics Engineering are explained in a simple, easy- to- understand manner. This book contains a large number of solved example or problem which will help the students in problem solving and designing of Transducers. I do hope that the text book in the present form will meet the requirement of the students doing graduation in Electronics & Communication Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering and Electrical & Electronics Engineering. I shall appreciate any suggestions from students and faculty members alike so that we can strive to make the text book more useful in the edition to come.
