8.1.3 TEDS
TEDS stands for "Transducer Electronic Data Sheet" and
refers to the electronic data sheet of a transducer or
sensor that is stored in a small electronic chip or appro
priate module which is permanently connected to the
device.
In addition, valuable metadata such as calibration data is
provided, which gives important information for the trace
ability of measurements or tests. The electronic data
sheet can be located in the transducer housing, in the
inseparable cable or connector plug.
The function and working method of TEDS are defined in
Standard IEEE1451.4.

Transducer information stored in the TEDS data
memory:
S the physical unit of the measured quantity (N for
force, for example) and its measuring range
S the unit of the electrical output signal (mV/V for bridge
transducers, for example)
S the linear characteristics as the relation between the
measured quantity and the electrical signal
