Transmitters

Someone asked this same question a day or two ago. Using the "Search all of CR4" button with "tramsmitter" typed into the window will yield about 500 threads on all types of transmitters and related questions. Happy reading!

To speak generally, a transducer is a device that converts a sensed value (pressure, temperature, flow, pH, etc.) into some other well correlated value (voltage, current, pressure, radio signal) etc.) that is easier to send (transmit) to a recording or controlling device.

Transducer and transmitter are somewhat interchangeable terms, but transducer focuses more on the correlation of the two values, while transmitter relates more to the method of conveying the signal remotely.

Then in the SEARCH block, type "transmitter". You'll be surprised what the internet holds. This break through in technology can also search other words as well. Dont be shy, google wont hurt you.

Beam me up Scotty! Oh! That's a transporter. Sorry
