Abstract :
The response of metal oxide chemical sensors is highly sensitive to operating temperature, and it is well known that this temperature has to be controlled within few degrees. Moreover operating sensors with variable temperature allows enhancing chemical sensing system capabilities. In this paper a simple but highly flexible temperature control system for metal oxide conductive chemical sensors is presented and discussed
