2.2 Connecting Acceleration Sensors
• When using the charge converter
Connect the charge output type acceleration sensor to a charge converter using a
highly isolated low-noise cable. By driving the charge converter using a constant
current from the WE7235, voltage signals similar to those of the built-in amplifier type
acceleration sensor can be obtained. The WE7235 measures the signals in the
acceleration measurement mode and supplies current (bias) to the charge converter.
Set the input sensitivity of the WE7235 according to the charge converter gain and the
sensitivity of the charge output type acceleration sensor.

Note
The measurement input of the WE7235 is non-isolated. If isolation is required between the item
being measured and the WE7235, use ground isolated acceleration sensors.
