Passive transducers - require an external power to operate, and the
output is a measure of some variation in passive components (e.g. resistance or
capacitance)
Examples of passive transducer :
-Slide-wire resistor
▫ Resistance strain gauge
▫ Differential transformer

Active Transducers - Self generating type - do not require an external power,
and produce an analog voltage or current when stimulated by some physical form of energy.
▫ Thermocouple
▫ Photovoltaic cell
▫ Moving coil generator
