Charge amplifier for piezo/accelerometer

[geomit]

Could anyone give me some good advice/resources on choosing a good circuit configuration for a charge amplifer for a piezo/accelerometer output. I don't really need a fancy one;I can use one for now that works. Know what flavor of op amp I should use would also help.

Thank you

Hmm I would do a check(search) of Linear Technology and National's application notes as I have many times stumbled across notes on piezo stuff.
Also Analog Devices!
