Charge converter

Series 495B10 differential remote charge converters from the Vibration Division of PCB Piezotronics are used with differential charge output piezoelectric accelerometers. Differential sensors and signal conditioning electronics are used in flight-test applications due to their common mode noise rejection, which reduces noise in the measurement signal. These units not only convert a transducer's differential high-impedance charge input signal to a low-impedance voltage output and supplies the normal acceleration output, but also supplies a separate integrated output for velocity. The charge converters operate from 10 to 32 V dc over a range of -13 to +185°F and are packaged in a lightweight aluminum housing.
