Understanding Sensors in Physics: Principles and Examples

1. Working Principle of Sensors A sensor is a device that converts non-electrical quantities into electrical quantities. The non-electrical quantities sensed typically include pressure, temperature, displacement, concentration, speed, pH, etc. The output is usually an electrical quantity, such as voltage, current, or charge. These output signals are very weak and usually need to be amplified … Read more

Introduction to 30 Common Sensor Modules and Their Working Principles (Part 1)

Introduction to 30 Common Sensor Modules and Their Working Principles (Part 1)

To acquire information from the external environment, humans must rely on sensory organs. However, relying solely on human sensory organs is inadequate for studying the laws of natural phenomena and production activities. To adapt to this situation, sensors are required. Therefore, it can be said that sensors are an extension of human senses, also known … Read more
