Charge Output Accelerometers
Charge output accelerometers directly output an electrostatic charge signal proportional to acceleration. These sensors do not contain built in signal conditioning electronics. External signal conditioning is required to interface
their generated measurement signals to most readout or recording instruments. The sensors’ charge output signals can be conditioned with either a laboratory-style, adjustable charge amplifier or an in-line fixed charge converter,
such as PCB's 422E series, rented separately.

Resolution and low frequency response of charge mode accelerometers is dependent on noise floor and discharge time constant characteristics of the signal conditioning and readout devices used. 422E series in-line charge converters
allow 357 Series sensors to be powered with ICP conditioning.
