Abstract
In an external force measuring system comprising a piezoelectric element 61 or producing a charge when acted on by an external force, and a charge amplifier 7 chargeable with a variation in the charge produced by the piezoelectric element to output a voltage signal, the charge amplifier 7 comprises a feedback loop having an on-off controllable switch 8 connected in parallel therewith. The switch 8 is on-off controlled by a comparator 81 for comparing the output voltage with a reference value and is closed while no external force acts on the element.
