1. utilizes circuits that are used to process the output signal from
sensors of a measurement system to be suitable for the next stage
of operation

Signal conditioning circuits

2.is a gearmechanism that converts a continuousrotation into an


intermittent rotary motion. The rotating driving wheel has a pin that
reaches into a slot of the driven wheel, advancing it by one step.
The drive wheel also has a raised circular blocking disc that locks
the driven wheel in position between steps.

Geneva drive

Maltese cross

3.is a machine in a power transmission system, which provides


controlled application of the power. It is also used to provide speed
and torque conversions from a rotating power source to another
device.

Transmission

4.is something that converts energy into motion. It is responsible


for moving or controlling a mechanism or system.

Actuator

5.A device that converts variations in a physical quantity, such as


pressure or brightness, into an electrical signal, or vice versa.For
instance, the signal needs conditioning in between a transducer
and display or data acquisition unit.

Transducer

6.A process by which an Alternating Current (AC) is transformed or


rectied into a Direct Current (DC).The conversion from AC to DC
is required in many applications, including machine control
systems.

Rectication

7.converts the analog signal collected by audio input equipment,


such as a microphone, into a digital signal that can be processed
by computer.
