Abstract: A gas sensor may include a plurality of elements that are responsive to particular gases based at least in part on the temperature of the temperature sensitive element. A first of the elements may be a gas detection element heated to a temperature at which it is responsive to a gas of interest. A plurality of additional elements may be configured in a reference element network and heated to a temperature at which they are not responsive to the gas of interest but are instead responsive to other effects such as humidity. The reference element network output may be used to remove the other effects (e.g., humidity) from the gas detection element output.

Abstract: A bi-directional photoacoustic gas sensor includes a first photoacoustic cell, where an electromagnetic radiation source emits radiation to interact with an external gas and generate pressure waves that are detected by a MEMS diaphragm. A second photoacoustic cell has an interior volume and acoustic compliance that corresponds to the interior volume and acoustic compliance of the first photoacoustic cell. Processing circuitry within a substrate uses a first acoustic signal, received by the first photoacoustic cell, and a second acoustic signal, received by the second photoacoustic cell, to determine a bi-directional response of the gas sensor to remove noise and improve the sensor's signal-to-noise ratio.
