Applications

Our semiconductor gas sensor's features are "small size", "high sensitivity", "low price", "long life", and "maintenance free" and widely used in the consumer and industrial markets. In addition to such features, FIS has realized a small power consumption miniature gas sensor that can be used in a battery operated device.

The single sensor can differentiate and detect several types of gases with an unique signal processing and sensor driving method. Furthermore, the improved sensing material has realized carbon dioxide detection, which was assumed to be impossible with semiconductor gas sensors.

The above mentioned various innovation for production technology, signal processing method, and sensing material research is developing the FIS gas sensor application fields. FIS innovative sensing technology has yielded the products below:
