1.1 Low-pass lters
An optional low-pass lter is factory installed in the airborne amplier if
specied on the Purchase Order. Available lters are 2-pole Butterworth
lters that provide the unit with a specic frequency response. If an
airborne amplier contains an optional lter, the model number will
contain a three-digit sufx (dash number) to indicate the lter’s -5%
frequency in Hz. The rst two digits are signicant numbers and the third
indicates the numbers of zeroes. As an example, the Model 2680M7-
102 Charge Amplier has a two-pole low-pass lter installed with a at
response from 5Hz (-5%) to 1 kHz (-5%). Tables 2 and 3 provide a list of
the various lters by dash number and frequency responses of each.

02 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Endevco Model 2680 and 2685 Series of Airborne Ampliers are
solid-state airborne devices designed for use with piezoelectric and
IEPE transducers. The 2680 and 2685 are essentially identical with the
exception of the front-end (see gures 1 and 2). The airborne ampliers
are potted with polyurethane foam and sealed. Units contain a front-end
circuit to receive the transducer signal, an optional lter to select the at
frequency response range and a potentiometer to set the desired gain of
the amplier’s output.
The 2680’s front end has a charge converter and voltage amplier in the
output. The charge amplier produces an output voltage proportional to
the charge at the input, thus minimizing the effect of input cable length.
The 2680 is designed to accommodate single-ended charge mode
piezoelectric accelerometers and microphones.
The 2685 provides a constant current source and amplier for an IEPE
(ISOTRON) type accelerometer. An IEPE accelerometer has a built-in
amplier that requires a constant current power source. The transducer
provides a low impedance voltage output while maintaining a two-wire
connection. Both the power and the signal output are carried over the
same cable.
The airborne ampliers use hybrid microcircuits to achieve small size, low
weight, and low power consumption. The case of the airborne amplier
is completely isolated from the circuit and an internal electrostatic shield
protects it from stray pickup.
Note that there are no provisions to access TEDS. A TEDS type transducer
can be used with the 2685, but the TEDS chip cannot be interrogated via
the airborne amplier. The 2685 does not monitor the transducer’s bias
excitation voltage. The transducer’s bias should not be confused with the
biased output available on pin C of the 6-pin connector. Pin 6 should
always have a biased output.

03 INITIAL INSPECTION
The charge amplier is packed in a protective bag and packaged in
shipping cartons containing shock-absorbent materials to prevent in-transit
damage. However, upon receipt of the units, the customer should make
an inspection to be certain that no damage has occurred during shipment.
Obvious damage should be reported immediately to the carrier.
Inspect the contents of the shipping carton and verify that the applicable
accessories listed in Table 4 are included in the shipment with each
airborne amplier.
Should it be necessary to return the amplier to the factory, follow the
instructions in section 7.1 of this manual. It is recommended that an
applications engineer be contacted prior to returning the unit since many
problems can be resolved via telephone of email.

04 INSTALLATION
The charge amplier’s case is drilled with two holes for mounting the unit
to the test specimen. The mounting holes are drilled and counter bored
to accommodate a 6-32 cap screw. Since there are some measurement
difference between the 2680 and 2685, the user should refer to gures 12
A and 12B for measurement information. The mounting hardware for both
airborne amplier models is listed in Table 4.

To minimize noise pickup, the case of the charge amplier should be
grounded to frame ground through the mounting screws, which act as
grounding lugs. Frame ground is then connected to circuit ground at
some single point to prevent ground loops.
04.1 Input Installation
This section covers the connections between the transducer and the
airborne ampliers.
04.1.1 2680 input cable
The 2680 airborne amplier is congured to operate with charge-mode
transducers thus the input cable must be low-noise treated. Cable
assemblies such as the Endevco 3090C or the premium 3090DV are
recommended. The connector on the airborne amplier is a 10-32 type.
04.1.1.2 Input cable length
Since the 2680 amplier supports high impedance charge-mode
accelerometers, it is important that the cable be as short as possible.
While cable length has no practical effect on sensitivity the high
impedance characteristics make the system susceptible to noise pick-up.
The model 2680 has an input source capacitance of 10 000 pF, maximum.
Thus the capacitance of the accelerometer plus the cable’s capacitance
must not exceed 10 000pf.
For example, using an Endevco 2276 piezoelectric accelerometer over
a distance of 80 feet (24 meters) between the accelerometer and the
airborne amplier. The coaxial cable between the accelerometer and
Table 4 listing standard
accessories’ supplied.
The mfg. part numbers
refer to Viking
Electronics.
ENDEVCO www.endevco.com Tel: +1 (866) ENDEVCO [+1 (866) 363-3826]
IM 2680/5 083119 8
airborne amplier has a nominal capacitance of 30 pF/ foot (92 pF/meter):
Therefore: 80 X 30 = 2400 pF
2400 pF is well within the capacitance range and will work OK, but there
might be some added noise.
04.1.2 2685 input cable
The 2685 is designed to operate with IEPE (ISOTRON) accelerometers,
thus low- noise treated cables are unnecessary. Recommended cable
assemblies are the Endevco Teon C-001-AC-001-X or the Endevco
silicone C-001-AD-001-X. The connector on the airborne amplier is a
10-32 type.
04.1.2.1 Input cable length
The 2685 can support long cables since the accelerometer’s used feature a
low-impedance voltage output. There is a practical limit of approximately
700 feet (213 meters), which will provide a 10V peak-to-peak output up
to 5 kHz. This is based on 30 pF/foot (98 pF/meter), which is a typical
capacitance found on many coaxial cables. Shorter cable lengths will
permit an increase of the maximum frequency.
04.2 Output connector, 2680, 2685
A 5-pin connector is provided for the output signals, ground and power.
The output characteristics and pins are common to both the 2680 and the
2685. The 5-pin connector is a bayonet-locking type. A mating connector
is supplied with the amplier. See gure 1 and 2 for the connector pinout
locations.
04.3 Powering
Power is applied to pins A (+) and D (ground) of the ve-pin connector.
Power should be from a clean DC source of 20 to 32 VDC (28 VDC,
nominal). The power input circuit includes reverse polarity protection thus
a reversed connection will not damage the airborne amplier.
The nominal current requirements are per the following table 5:
Model Description Current, mA
2680 Units with lters 25
2680 Unltered units 20
2685 All versions 30
04.4 Signal outputs
Each airborne amplier has two outputs, biased and/or unbiased. Both
outputs are single-ended with one side connected to circuit ground. When
both outputs are used simultaneously, the parallel combination of both
load resistances must be 10k ohm or greater to meet all specications.
Table 5
ENDEVCO www.endevco.com Tel: +1 (866) ENDEVCO [+1 (866) 363-3826]
IM 2680/5 083119 9
Maximum output voltage is approximately 0 to 5 v (± v pk) depending on
the specic airborne amplier. The output circuits are short-circuit proof,
thus the outputs will withstand an indenite short without damage.
4.4.1 Biased output
The biased output is available from pin C (+) and pin D (ground). This
output is
direct-coupled with an output impedance of less than 50 ohms. With
no input, the airborne amplier produces +2.5 v dc, ±3% at the output.
Output voltage will be approximately +/- 2.5 V pk around this bias level.
Clipping will occur slightly above the O V level and between +5.0 and
+5.3 V.
4.4.2 Unbiased output
The unbiased output is available between pins B (+) and D (ground).
This output is taken from the same source as the biased except a series
decoupling capacitor blocks the DC bias only allowing only the AC
signal to be available at pin B. With the addition of the series capacitor
and bleed resistor in the output, a 0.00 V bias level is established. The
unbiased output is linear from 0 to 4.65 V p-p, or 0 to 5.00 V p-p,
depending on the specic airborne amplier used.
Refer to Table 1-2 for further output data on specic airborne ampliers.
4.5 Adjustable gain
The airborne amplier’s enclosure contains a removable screw to permit
access to a gain potentiometer. The potentiometer enables the user
to adjust the gain to any desired setting within the gain range of the
amplier. For example, in an M3 version; the gain range would be 0.5 to
5 per table 1. The gain-access screw is located on the side of the case
as shown in gure 4. Remove the access screw using a 5/64” hex wrench
with an insulated handle.
Figure 4 illustrates
removal, re-installation
and solder sealing of
the gain adjustment
potentiometer. A
200-watt soldering iron
with a narrow tip is
recommended.
ENDEVCO www.endevco.com Tel: +1 (866) ENDEVCO [+1 (866) 363-3826]
IM 2680/5 083119 10
The gain adjustment is a 12-turn (typical) 500 000-ohm (±0.1%)
potentiometer with mechanical stops at the extreme clockwise (cw) and
counterclockwise (ccw) positions. Maximum resistance (minimum amplier
gain) is obtained in the extreme cw position. Signals are present at both
ends of the potentiometer, but signal changes may not occur during the
nal two turns. A 1/16” (1.6 mm) at blade screwdriver is recommended
for adjusting the potentiometer.
Airborne ampliers shipped as a component of an Endevco system
consisting of an airborne amplier with a cable assembly and either an
accelerometer or microphone; normally have the gain factory-set to a
specic level, and the gain-access screw solder-sealed to the case of the
airborne amplier. The gain-access screw must be sealed to the case
with solder (recommended), glyptol or epoxy for it to meet humidity
specications during operation.
Units shipped as single items of equipment have the gain potentiometer
set to the maximum rated gain and the gain-access screw temporarily
seated in the threaded access hole. Users may adjust the gain to a desired
gain setting prior to installation of an airborne amplier. See table 1 to
determine the applicable gain range.
4.5.1 Unsoldering the access screw
Should it become necessary to remove the screw from a unit that has been
solder sealed, follow the instructions as follows:
• Preheat an oven to 212°F (100°C).
• Place airborne amplier in the preheated oven for a period of time
sufcient for the airborne amplier to stabilize.
• Insert the 5/64”Allen wrench into the access screw (per gure 4) and
place a soldering iron adjacent to the access screw as shown in gure
4.
• Apply ccw torque to the Allen wrench and remove the access screw
when solder seal is molten.
CAUTION
When removing the access screw, care should be exercised to prevent
molten solder from entering the airborne amplier.
4.5.2 Sealing the access screw
A new access screw should be used to seal the gain adjust hole. Installing
used access hole screws could prevent the airborne amplier from meeting
the humidity specications. Follow the steps below for installing and
sealing the new screw:
• Install a new access screw into the gain adjust hole.
• Preheat oven to 212°F (100°C).
