Abstract

An air-fuel ratio detection device' comprises: a sensor element′ including a sensor cell; a voltage application circuit′ applying voltage to the sensor cell; a current detector′ detecting an output current of the sensor cell; an air-fuel ratio calculating partconfigured to calculate an air-fuel ratio of an exhaust gas; and a parameter detecting partconfigured to detect or calculate a temperature correlation parameter correlated with a temperature of the sensor element. The air-fuel ratio calculating part is configured to calculate the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas based on the temperature correlation parameter and the output current detected when a predetermined voltage is applied to the sensor cell.
