    <abstract language="eng"><p>An optimized platinum (Pt) doped tin oxide (SnO<sub>2</sub>) ink was prepared by chemical route and was deposited on low temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) micro-hotplate by screen printing. An alkoxide ink was prepared by mixing tin(II) 2-ethylexanoate (17 wt%) with isopropanol (27 wt%) and SnO<sub>2</sub> powder (55 wt%). Doping of the ink was done using Pt (1 wt%) which increased the resistance of SnO<sub>2</sub> film at room temperature and also reduced the operating temperature. The temperature of ensor was obtained and stabilised using MOSFET based temperature stability circuit. Film characterization was performed using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) technique. Small grain size and high porosity is the requirement for good sensing. The grain size was found to be in the range of 150-180 nm and the film was sufficiently porous. Resistance change of the film was also investigated in the presence of carbon  monoxide (CO) to assure gas sensing.</p></abstract>
