A sensor for determining the concentration of a gas component in a gas mixture is provided, including at least one pump cell having an outer pump electrode which is exposed to the gas mixture and an inner pump electrode located in a measuring chamber, and further including a Nernst cell having a Nernst electrode located in the measuring chamber and a reference electrode located in a reference gas channel. The pump cell and the Nernst are formed in a composite structure of stacked solid electrolyte layers, which structure has an upper layer containing the pump electrodes, a middle layer containing the measuring chamber and the reference gas channel, as well as a lower layer containing a heating element and two supply leads. To suppress noise in the output signal of the sensor, the leads of the Nernst cell are disposed in one plane, in parallel side-by-side relationship, and symmetrically to at least one of the two supply leads of the heating element.
