Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS)

A Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS) is a digital data file embedded in or associated with a sensor or transducer, providing essential information about its characteristics, calibration, and configuration. It enables measurement systems to automatically recognize and correctly interpret the sensor’s data without manual setup. This standardization simplifies sensor integration, improves accuracy, and allows for easier updates or replacements. Think of TEDS as a digital “ID card” for sensors that ensures compatibility and proper functioning within measurement systems, promoting efficient and reliable data acquisition across various applications.
