The specified measurement range covers the gas range concentrations expected in indoor air quality applications. Accuracy is defined as c - c set c set with c the measured concentration and c the set concentration set point. The concentration c is determined by see Figure 2 Relative s - s Ethanol signal ref out 3 accuracy typ.: 15% of meas. value c = c exp ( ) ref 512 with sout: Ethanol signal output at concentration c s : Ethanol signal output at concentration ref cref = 0.18 ppm see Figure 3 Change of accuracy over time: Siloxane accelerated 4 Long-term drift Ethanol signal 5 lifetime test typ.: 1.3% of meas. value Resolution of Ethanol signal output in relative change of the Resolution Ethanol signal 0.2 % of meas. value measured concentration The on-chip baseline algorithm has been optimized for Low power mode: 2s Sampling time Ethanol signal these sampling rates. The sensor shows best performance Ultralow power mode: 30s when used with this sampling rate. Table 1 Gas sensing performance. Specifications are at 25C, 50% RH and typical VDD. All parameters are determined for the low-power operation mode with one measurement every 2s. The sensors have been operated for at least 24h before the first characterization. 1 Exposure to ethanol and H2 concentrations up to 1000 ppm have been tested. For applications requiring the measurement of higher gas concentrations please contact Sensirion. 2 ppm: parts per million. 1 ppm = 1000 ppb (parts per billion) 3 90% of the sensors will be within the typical accuracy tolerance, >99% are within the maximum tolerance. 4 The long-term drift is stated as change of accuracy per year of operation. 5 Test conditions: operation in 250 ppm Decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5) for 200h simulating 10 years of operation in an indoor environment. www.sensirion.com Version 1.0 May 2020 D1 2/19
