Abstract
A gas sensing device, comprising a bulk and an array of gas sensing elements that are thermally isolated from the bulk, wherein each gas sensing element of a plurality of gas sensing elements of the array comprises (i) a gas reactive element that has a gas dependent temperature parameter; (ii) a semiconductor temperature sensing element that is thermally coupled to the gas reactive element and is configured to generate detection signals that are responsive to a temperature of the gas reactive element; and (iii) multiple heating elements that are configured to heat the gas reactive element to at least one predefined temperature.
