Abstract:
1. A biosensor for determining an analyte concentration in a biological fluid, comprising: a measurement device having a processor connected to a pattern read device; a sensor strip having a sequential conductive pattern, the sequential conductive pattern including conductive and non-conductive areas; where the measurement device and sensor strip implement an analyte analysis, where the analyte analysis has at least one correlation equation; where the pattern read device applies test signals to the sequential conductive pattern and includes test contacts, the pattern read device selectively and sequentially connecting the test contacts with conductive and non-conductive areas on the sequential conductive pattern; where the sequential conductive pattern generates at least two code signals in response to the test signals; where the processor calibrates at least one correlation equation responsive to the code signals; and where the processor determines an analyte concentration responsive to at least one calibrated correlation equation.
