[0035] The gas sensing chip provided by the embodiment of the utility model will be described.
[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 , the gas sensing chip 100 includes the first electrode layer 21, the first insulating layer 31, the heating layer 40, the second insulating layer 32 and the second electrode layer 22 arranged along the first direction, the first gas sensitive layer 11 is arranged on the first electrode layer 21, and the second gas sensitive layer 12 is arranged on the second electrode layer 22. In combination with Figure 1 , the first direction can be from top to bottom.
[0037] The first gas sensitive layer 11 is configured to interact with the gas to be measured, and the electrical property of the first gas sensitive layer 11 is changed. The second gas sensitive layer 12 is also configured to interact with the gas to be measured, and the electrical property of the second gas sensitive layer 12 is changed. Specifically, when the first gas sensitive layer 11 and the second gas sensitive layer 12 are in contact with the gas to be measured, the electrical property of the first gas sensitive layer 11 and the second gas sensitive layer 12 will change, and when the concentration of the gas to be measured changes after the first gas sensitive layer 11 and the second gas sensitive layer 12 are in contact with the gas to be measured, the electrical property of the first gas sensitive layer 11 and the second gas sensitive layer 12 will also change. The electrical property can be resistance, capacitance, inductance, etc. For example, when the gas sensitive layer of zinc oxide is exposed to oxygen, the resistance of the gas sensitive layer will change with the increase of the concentration of oxygen. By measuring the change of the electrical property of the gas sensitive layer, whether the gas to be measured exists and the concentration change of the gas to be measured can be indirectly inferred or calculated.
[0038] The first electrode layer 21 is made of conductive material, and the first electrode layer 21 is in contact with the first gas sensitive layer 11. Specifically, the first gas sensitive layer 11 contacts the first electrode layer 21 and the detection circuit, and when the electrical property of the first gas sensitive layer 11 changes, the detection circuit can measure the change of the electrical property of the first gas sensitive layer 11 through the first electrode layer 21.
[0039] The second electrode layer 22 is made of conductive material, and the second electrode layer 22 is in contact with the second gas sensitive layer 12. Specifically, the second gas sensitive layer 12 contacts the second electrode layer 22 and the detection circuit, and when the electrical property of the second gas sensitive layer 12 changes, the detection circuit can measure the change of the electrical property of the second gas sensitive layer 12 through the second electrode layer 22.

[0041] The first insulating layer 31 is arranged between the first electrode layer 21 and the heating layer 40, and is made of insulating material, which can insulate the first electrode layer 21 and the heating layer 40 from each other, avoiding mutual conduction.
[0042] The second insulating layer 32 is arranged between the second electrode layer 22 and the heating layer 40, and is made of insulating material, which can insulate the second electrode layer 22 and the heating layer 40 from each other, avoiding mutual conduction.
[0043] The first gas sensitive layer 11 can contact the gas to be measured, and the second gas sensitive layer 12 can be closed and not in contact with the gas to be measured, only contacting the background gas. At this time, the materials, sizes, shapes, temperatures and other conditions of the first gas sensitive layer 11 and the second gas sensitive layer 12 are the same, so the signal generated by the first gas sensitive layer 11 can be understood as a response signal, and the signal generated by the second gas sensitive layer 12 can be understood as a background signal. The response signal and the background signal are subtracted to filter out the background noise signal. Whether the temperature of the gas sensitive layer reaches a stable state or not, the signal jump before the temperature reaches a stable state can be filtered out, solving the problem of long start-up time of traditional gas sensing chips, and improving the signal-to-noise ratio and reducing the misjudgment rate. Similarly, the first gas sensitive layer 11 can also be closed, and the second gas sensitive layer 12 can contact the gas to be measured.
[0044] The materials and other conditions of the first gas sensitive layer 11 and the second gas sensitive layer 12 are different, and different gases to be measured can be detected respectively. The signals generated by the first gas sensitive layer 11 and the second gas sensitive layer 12 are both response signals, and different gas sensitive layers can detect different gases.
