Abstract
With the development of science and technology, gas sensors have gradually expanded to many vertical fields. However, each application requires different technical requirements for gas sensors, such as low cost, small size, high sensitivity, high precision, and low power consumption. To create gas sensors that meet the performance requirements, researchers worldwide are working on solutions in fields such as sensitive materials, sensor arrays, and interface circuits. However, there are bottlenecks in the research of interface circuits, which limits the volume, power consumption, and intelligent design development of gas sensors. Therefore, this article reviews various types of gas sensors and interface circuits implemented with different technologies, analyzes their research significance in various areas, and provides ideas for future gas sensor research directions.
