Default Is a Turn Coordinator an electric motor or powered by fan?

I have always read and been taught that a turn coordinator is usually
powered by electricity. Is the turn coordinator, in itself, an
electric motor? Or does an electric-powered fan supply the air to spin
the gyro?

Anybody have any insight for me? Thanks.
