    Chapter 4 Theory of Operation Analog Input Circuitry The BNC-2140 has four identical analog input channels. The BNC-2140 supplies a constant current for IEPE accelerometers and microphone preamplifiers. Many accelerometers use piezoelectric materials to generate a charge proportional to the acceleration applied. These types of accelerometers are susceptible to external noise.
