Look at the output from your piezo device with an oscilloscope.
That should give you an idea about the time scale of the event, i.e. if you can just use a standard ADC and sample at x kHz or if you need to use a sample-and-hold circuit. The advantage with a fast enough ADC is of course that you will not just get the maximum amplitude of the signal. You will get full envelope, decay, ... What quality you need is a completely different issue. |
