  • Abstract
    A PSPICE model of quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) gas/odour sensors is presented which simulates the response of polymer-coated QCM devices to gases, taking into account the effects of ambient temperature and humidity. The model enables the associated drive circuitry to be rapidly prototyped and electronic nose equipment to be optimised
