  • Patent number: 11571147
    Abstract: Methods of compensating for ambient temperature using temperature sensors, the method comprising: sampling at a first sampling rate, with a processor, first temperature measurements from a first temperature sensor on an on-body sensor. Then determining, with a processor, first ambient-compensated temperatures from the first temperature measurements; and determining, with a processor, final ambient-compensated temperatures by applying a correction gain or factor to the first ambient-compensated temperatures. Wherein the correction gain or factor changes value at a slower rate than the sampling rate.

  • Publication number: 20220359074
    Abstract: Methods and devices to monitor an analyte in body fluid are provided. Embodiments include continuous or discrete acquisition of analyte related data from a transcutaneously positioned in vivo analyte sensor automatically or upon request from a user. The in vivo analyte sensor is coupled to an electronics unit holding a memory with instruction to cause processing circuitry to initiate a predetermined time period that is longer than a predetermined life of the sensor, during the predetermined time period, convert signals from the sensor related to glucose to respective corresponding glucose levels, without relying on any post-manufacture independent analyte measurements from a reference device, and at the expiration of the predetermined time period, disable, deactivate, or cease use of one or more feature.
