  • Publication number: 20230149608
    Abstract: A fluid sensor system that is configured to perform in-line monitoring is disclosed. The fluid sensor system can include a sensor module that includes a sensing channel configured to receive a sample fluid, two or more calibration compartments, and a sensing element configured to interact with the sample fluid in the sensing channel. The fluid sensor system can include a reader that is electrically and mechanically coupled to the sensor module. The reader includes a controller that is configured to control operation of the fluid sensor system.

  • Patent number: 10702184
    Abstract: Various examples are directed to a measurement system for measuring an electrical property of skin comprising an excitation circuit, a receiver circuit, and a sequencer circuit. The excitation circuit may generate a periodic excitation signal that, when provided to the skin, generates a response signal in the skin indicative of the electrical property. The sequencer circuit may be configured to activate the excitation circuit to provide the excitation signal to the skin. While the excitation circuit is activated to provide the excitation signal to the skin, the sequencer circuit may activate the receiver circuit to execute a first sample cycle to generate a first plurality of samples of the response signal. A first value for the electrical property of the skin may be determined based at least in part on the first plurality of samples of the response signal.

  • Patent number: 10386324
    Abstract: Subject matter herein can include identifying a biochemical test strip assembly electrically, such as using the same test circuitry as can be used to perform an electrochemical measurement, without requiring use of optical techniques. The identification can include using information about a measured susceptance of an identification feature included as a portion of the test strip assembly. The identification can be used by test circuitry to select test parameters or calibration values, or to select an appropriate test protocol for the type of test strip coupled to the test circuitry. The identification can be used by the test circuitry to validate or reject a test strip assembly, such as to inhibit use of test strips that fail meet one or more specified criteria.
