    A transducer is the electronic device which use converts a signal from one form of energy to another form of the energy.

    The differences between active and passive transducers are:

    An active transducer produce output without use of any external power source, whereas an passive transducer requires external power source for its working.

    The resolution of a passive transducer is higher than an active transducer.

    The design of passive transducer is much complicated than an active transducer.
