Classification of transducers?
The primary and secondary transducer
Active and passive transducer
Analog and digital transducer
Transducers and inverse transducers
APPLICATIONS
Applications of transducer some are used in medicine
as sonograph machines in the medical field and there
are others which are used in music recording
conductor.

R = l/µA
L = N2µA/l
L = N2µG
M = K √L1L2
Capacitive Transducer
The capacitive transducer is used for measuring the
displacement, pressure and other physical quantities. It
is a passive transducer that means it requires external
power for operation. The capacitive transducer works
on the principle of variable capacitances. The
capacitance of the capacitive transducer changes
because of many reasons like overlapping of plates,
change in distance between the plates and dielectric
constant.

Capacitive-transducer-formula
In this formula:
C indicates the capacitance of the variable capacitance
εo indicates the permittivity of free space
εr indicates the relative permittivity
A indicates the area of the plates
D indicates the distance between the plates
LVDT
The term LVDT stands for the Linear Variable Differential
Transformer. It is the most widely used inductive transducer
that converts the linear motion into the electrical signal.
