Zero shift caused by the low frequency response of charge amplifiers is one of the most significant factors in shock measurements with long duration, such as low shock calibration of accelerometers. In order to reproduce the same zero shift as the charge amplifier, infinite impulse response (IIR) filters were developed by applying a second order transfer function to the high pass characteristic in the low frequency part of the measured frequency response of charge amplifiers. For the experimental verification of the zero shift using the IIR filter, input/output signals of the charge amplifier were investigated by using rectangular waveforms with a peak voltage of 2 V and pulse width of 10 ms and 5 ms, respectively. As indicated by the results, the IIR filter succeeds in following the same zero shift as the charge amplifier.
