A transducer is a device that converts a physical quantity into some other type of signal eg. sound to voltage, light to current, or vice versa
The mechanical transducers are the mechanical elements that are used for converting one form of energy into other form that can be measured easily. Electrical transducers may be classified as active or passive. The active transducers generate electric current or voltage directly in response to stimulation
Passive transducers are the transducers which requires an external power supply to operate and the output is a measure of some variation in passive.
The applications of piezo transducers are Proxmity Sensing, Nondestructive Evaluation, Fluid Flow Movement, Fluid Level Detection, and Solid/Liquid Separation. And sounders.
the signal can be converted into digital form and can be stored for further reference.display of the data is possible on a CRO.reading of analog data with the help of electrical transducers has less losses involved as compared to mechanical transducers.

Transducers are often used in the medical industry with an ultrasound machine. GE Healthcare as well as Fairchild both carry transducers for these types of machines.
Transducers can be made of various materials depending on the type and purpose, such as piezoelectric crystals for ultrasound transducers or coils of wire for electromagnetic transducers. Other common materials include ceramics, metals, and semiconductors. The choice of material is based on factors like sensitivity, durability, and cost.

Passive transducers are the transducers which requires an external power supply to operate and the output is a measure of some variation in passive components. Example- Differential transformers, Resistance strain gauge etc..
TRANSDUCER is a device converts one form of energy into other forms sensor it is device any form into electrical form my point of view ,all the sensors are transducers ,but all the transducers are not sensors
Passive transducers are the transducers which requires an external power supply to operate and the output is a measure of some variation in passive.

Advantage: Mechanical transducers are typically robust and durable, making them ideal for harsh environments. They also tend to have a wide operating temperature range compared to other types of transducers. Disadvantage: Mechanical transducers can be bulky and heavy, limiting their applicability in certain situations. They also may have limited accuracy and sensitivity compared to newer technologies like electronic transducers.
