A surface-acoustic-wave-sensor-included oscillator circuit does not cause
separation of an electrode film due to application of a bias voltage and
can reliably accurate operate even if liquid is adhered thereto. The
surface-acoustic-wave-sensor-included oscillator circuit includes
interdigital electrode disposed on a piezoelectric substrate and a
reaction film that is arranged so as to cover the interdigital electrodes
and bound to a target substance or a binding material to be bound to the
target substance. A surface acoustic wave sensor that is capable of
detecting a bit of mass loading on the basis of a variation in frequency
is connected as a resonator in the surface-acoustic-wave-sensor-included
oscillator circuit. Direct-current cutting capacitors are connected in
series to the surface acoustic wave sensor, and the direct-current
cutting capacitors respectively define impedance matching circuits in the
surface-acoustic-wave-sensor-included oscillator circuit.
