Sensor type and function

Last Update Time: 2018-12-04 12:03:37

According to different standards, the types of sensors are different and can play their role in a specific environment. So now we specifically talk about the types and functions of sensors.

 

First, according to the input physical quantity can be divided into: displacement sensor, pressure sensor, speed sensor, temperature sensor and gas sensor.

 

Second, according to the working principle can be divided into: resistive, inductive, capacitive and potential.

 

Third, according to the nature of the output signal can be divided into: analog sensor and digital sensor. That is, the analog sensor outputs an analog signal, and the digital sensor outputs a digital signal.

 

Fourth, according to the energy conversion principle can be divided into: active sensors and passive sensors. Active sensors convert non-electricity into electrical energy, such as electromotive force, charge sensors, etc. Passive program sensors do not convert energy, but only convert the measured non-electricity into electrical parameters, such as resistive, inductive and capacitive. A glow sensor, etc.

 

 There are two kinds of output modes, current output and voltage output, in the sensor, to understand the difference between the sensor output mode and have certain influence on the production measurement.
