Claim Text:
1. A monitoring device for detecting that an object has been subjected to a particular condition, comprising: a carrier disposed on the object; a processor disposed on the carrier; a sensor disposed on the carrier, wherein the sensor is adapted to detect when the object is subjected to at least a first magnitude of the particular condition; a configuration circuit for specifying a configuration parameter, wherein the configuration parameter includes a second magnitude of the particular condition, wherein the second magnitude is greater than the first magnitude, wherein the configuration circuit includes two conductive traces associated with the configuration parameter, wherein coupling the two conductive traces specifies the second magnitude; wherein the two conductive traces are disposed between the carrier and a further carrier, and the coupling occurs through an aperture of the further carrier and wherein the processor remains in an inactive state if the object is subjected to a magnitude of the particular condition less than the second magnitude, the sensor generates a signal in response to detection of the object being subjected to a third magnitude of the particular condition, and in response to the signal the processor enters an active state to develop an indication of third magnitude of the particular condition, wherein the third magnitude is greater than or equal to the second magnitude.
