To allow IEPE (integrated electronic piezoelectric) sensors to be used with data acquisition devices with 1MΩ BNC inputs, Pico Technology has created the TA487 IEPE Signal Conditioner. Integrated Electronics Piezo-Electric is a technical standard for piezoelectric sensors that include built-in active impedance conversion (often a FET) to push sensed signals through long cables. Such sensors …
