Q&A PID Gas sensor interfacing with ADC

I am interfacing this gas sensor to the ADC of TI CC1352P. May I know can I directly connect the output of this gas sensor to ADC (I mean after the gas sensor output I will keep an RC circuit with ...

PID Gas sensor interfacing with ADC
I am interfacing [this gas sensor](https://ametekcdn.azureedge.net/mediafiles/project/oneweb/oneweb/alphasense/products/datasheets/alphasense_pidx-a-040_datasheet_en_1.pdf?revision:d31c21ac-2ec6-4c60-b335-1f8f2971e673) to the ADC of [TI CC1352P](https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/cc1352p.pdf?ts=1755064291749). May I know can I directly connect the output of this gas sensor to ADC or do I need to place a unity gain buffer before the ADC.

My calculations about the gas sensor is given below.
