### Dynamics and Noise of a piezoelectric force sensor {#dynamics-and-noise-of-a-piezoelectric-force-sensor}
|
||
|
||
An analysis the dynamics and noise of a piezoelectric force sensor is done in ([Fleming 2010](#org9ffb699)) ([Notes]({{< relref "fleming10_nanop_system_with_force_feedb" >}})).

### Signal Conditioner {#signal-conditioner}
|
||
|
||
The voltage generated by the piezoelectric material generally needs to be amplified using a [Signal Conditioner]({{< relref "signal_conditioner" >}}).
|
||
|
||
Either **charge** amplifiers or **voltage** amplifiers can be used.
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Effect of using multiple Stacks in series of parallels {#effect-of-using-multiple-stacks-in-series-of-parallels}
|
||
|
||
If two stack are wired in series, the generated charge is kept constant and the capacitance is reduced by a factor 2.
|
||
Thus, the measured voltage is double while the measured charge is kept constant.
|
||
|
||
If two stacks are wired in parallel, the capacitance and the number of charge will be doubled.
|
||
Thus, if a voltage amplifier is used, no change of voltage will be experienced.
|
||
However, if a charge conditioner is used, the signal will be doubled.
