Newest mySENS® sensor generation allows simultaneous detection of two gases, as well as integrated measurement of ambient temperature and humidity – at drastically reduced size and less power consumption
Micronas will present the latest generation of Micronas gas sensors based on the pioneering mySENS technology at this year’s Sensor+Test trade show in Nuremberg.
After the successful launch of the first sensor generation GAS 85xyB, Micronas now comes up with its once again greatly improved successor GAS 86xyB.
As well as its previous version, the latest sensor generation is based on proven and cost efficient standard CMOS technology, which enables the combination of sensor elements for gas, temperature and humidity measurements on one single chip – by reducing the power consumption to 50% and minimizing the size to fit into a QFN package with the dimensions of only 6 mm × 8 mm × 1.4 mm (length × width × height).
The innovative platform concept of mySENS provides a wide variety of target gases for gas detection, which can be chosen, always in combinations of two, during manufacture. The calibrated integrated temperature and relative humidity sensors can be used for cross-sensitivity-compensation for more reliability in gas detections but also for independent measurement purposes.
With the GAS 86xyB, Micronas offers a value-optimized, energy-saving and durable multi-parametric sensor platform for reliable gas measurements in a wide range of applications. The company will demonstrate these facts explicitly on its booth.
