Question
A piezoelectric displacement sensor can be modeled with a 75-G in parallel with
250 pF capacitor. It is to be used for monitoring the vibration of a structure above
75 Hz. Since the output of this sensor is only 10µV and requires amplification by a
factor of 100 to drive an actuator, you decided to use an off-the shelf amplifier with
the lowest possible cost. If there are the following three amplifiers available
providing the desired amplification, then select a most economical unit that will
work.
50pf in parallel with 10 MQ; costs $45
50pF in parallel with 7.5 MQ; costs $35.
50pF in parallel with 5MQ; costs $25
O None of these.
