| 20100264027 | GAS SENSOR - A gas sensor including a gas sensor element configured by laminating three or more ceramic layers and having an electrode pad disposed on an outer surface thereof and penetrating holes extending in a laminating direction through two or more of the ceramic layers disposed between an inner conductor and the electrode pad. The gas sensor element has a conductive path formed therein which passes through the penetrating holes formed in different respective ones of the ceramic layers and electrically connects the inner conductor and the electrode pad. Further, the conductive pad is a type 1 conductive path which passes through a plurality of the penetrating holes disposed so as not to overlie one another as viewed from the laminating direction. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20090120161 | GAS SENSOR CONTROL DEVICE - A gas sensor control device for controlling a gas sensor, the gas sensor including a gas sensor element that includes a cell including a pair of electrodes and a solid electrolyte, the gas sensor control device including a circuit board connectable to the gas sensor. The circuit board has mounted thereon a voltage control unit mounted on the circuit board and configured to control a voltage developed across a pair of electrodes of the cell to a constant voltage; a temperature detecting unit mounted on the circuit board and configured to detect a temperature of the circuit board; and a voltage correcting unit mounted on the circuit board and configured to apply a correction voltage to the voltage control unit compensating for a temperature-dependent variation in the constant voltage based on the temperature detected by the temperature detecting unit. | 05-14-2009 |
