Abstract: We disclose herein an electronic device comprising: a state machine for receiving an output signal from a sensor; a comparator operatively coupled with the state machine; and a first processor operatively coupled with the comparator. The state machine is configured to receive the output signal from the at least one sensor to obtain sensor measurement data and configured to pass the obtained sensor measurement data to the comparator. The comparator is configured to process the obtained sensor measurement data into first processed sensor data, and configured to compare the first processed sensor data with a first predetermined threshold limit. The comparator is configured to inform the first processor about the obtained sensor measurement data if the first processed sensor data exceed the first predetermined threshold limit.

Abstract: A gas sensing device comprising a substrate comprising an etched cavity portion and a substrate portion; a dielectric layer disposed on the substrate. The dielectric layer comprises a dielectric membrane. The dielectric membrane is adjacent to the etched cavity portion of the substrate. The dielectric membrane comprises an etched recess portion, a heater located within the dielectric layer, and a material for sensing a gas. The material for sensing a gas is located within the etched recess portion of the dielectric membrane.

Abstract: We disclose herein a method for testing a batch of environmental sensors to determine the fitness for purpose of the batch of environmental sensors, the method comprising: performing a plurality of electrical test sequences to the sensor inputs of the batch of environmental sensors to measure electrical responses of the sensor outputs of the batch of environmental sensors; correlating the measured electrical responses from the batch of environmental sensors to predetermined environmental parametric ranges of at least one environmental sensor so as to define correlated electrical test limits; and determining the fitness for purpose of the batch of environmental sensors if the measured electrical responses are within the correlated electrical test limits.

Abstract: We disclose herein an environmental sensor system comprising an environmental sensor comprising a first heater and a second heater in which the first heater is configured to consume a lower power compared to the second heater. The system also comprises a controller coupled with the environmental sensor. The controller is configured to detect if a measured value of a targeted environmental parameter is present. The controller is configured to switch on at least one of the first and second heaters based on the presence and/or result of the measured value of the targeted environmental parameter.

Abstract: We disclose herein a method for heating a gas sensing material formulation on a microhotplate which comprises: a dielectric membrane formed on a semiconductor substrate comprising an etched portion; and the gas sensing material formulation being located on one side of the dielectric membrane. The method comprising: selectively heating the gas sensing material formulation using an infra-red (IR) heater located over the substrate, and controllably cooling the semiconductor substrate using a cooling baseplate provided under the substrate and using an insulating medium located between the substrate and the cooling base plate so that a gas sensing structure is formed on said one side of the dielectric membrane from the gas sensing material formulation.
