Publication number: 20250040837Abstract: Disclosed are devices, systems and methods for power management in an electronics unit of a sensor device, e.g., such as in a continuous analyte sensor system. In some example embodiments, there is provided a method that includes monitoring, by a controller of a sensor electronics module, counts associated with signals received from a sensor device for a first period of time. The method also includes comparing a number of received counts with one or more benchmarked count thresholds, and determining whether to initiate an operational mode of the sensor electronics module based on the comparison. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2024Publication date: February 6, 2025Inventors: Jeffrey R.
