Description The paper presents the design, simulation and fabrication of Platinum (Pt) based Microhotplate for gas sensing application. In order to reduce the power consumption, various geometries of microhotplate were simulated using ANSYS. Based on power consumption and average temperature distribution, double spiral pattern of microheater was selected. A Pt resistor of 30 Ω is fabricated on a thin SiO2 membrane. Electrical testing of microhotplate was performed. A temperature of 520 °C was achieved at 19 mW power consumption.
