A complete front-end system for resistive gas sensor array is presented. The interface is composed by 8 read-out channels and by 2 closed-loop temperature control circuits. The IC gas sensor read-out structure is based on a controlled oscillator, which acts like a resistance-to-period converter, and achieves a 0.5%-linearity over 500kOhm-1GOhm sensor resistance range with a SNR better than 48dB, corresponding to 114dB-DR. The temperature control systems allows maintaining a 100�C gradient on the array of sensor, selected in the temperature range 100�C-400�C, with a �2.5�C accuracy. The full device is designed in a standard 0.35�m CMOS technology. The die area is 1.8mm2 with a total power consumption of 27mW from a single 3.3V supply voltage.

Abstract

A complete front-end system for resistive gas sensor array is presented. The interface is composed by 8 read-out channels and by 2 closed-loop temperature control circuits. The IC gas sensor read-out structure is based on a controlled oscillator, which acts like a resistance-to-period converter, and achieves a 0.5%-linearity over 500kOhm-1GOhm sensor resistance range with a SNR better than 48dB, corresponding to 114dB-DR. The temperature control systems allows maintaining a 100�C gradient on the array of sensor, selected in the temperature range 100�C-400�C, with a �2.5�C accuracy. The full device is designed in a standard 0.35�m CMOS technology. The die area is 1.8mm2 with a total power consumption of 27mW from a single 3.3V supply voltage.
