/ /trɑːnzˈdjuːsə/ /transˈdjuːsə/ /trɑːnsˈdjuːsə/noun
A device that converts variations in a physical quantity, such as pressure or brightness, into an electrical signal, or vice versa.With the ink jet recording head, the relationship between the amount and the speed of ejected ink droplets can be optimized in accordance with the size of areas of the electro-thermal transducers....
- The CDA is a compound transducer created by cascading a Lorenz-force transducer and an elastic transducer.
- These pressure transducers are connected with the dampers via a control unit which changes the position of the dampers in accordance with the airflow condition.
