Abstract: A biosensor apparatus and method with sample type and cell volume detection. The
apparatus includes a sine wave generator to apply an AC signal to a biosensor cell containing
a sample, a current-to-voltage converter, a phase shifter, a square wave generator, a
synchronous demodulator, and a low pass filter which yields a signal proportional to the
effective capacitance across the biosensor cell, which is proportional to the volume of the
sample. In addition, the current-to-voltage converter yields a signal indicative of the type of
sample contained within the biosensor cell. The method includes applying a sine wave to the
biosensor cell, shifting the phase of the resultant signal, generating a square wave
synchronous with the sine wave, demodulating the resultant signal with the square wave, and
filtering the demodulated signal to produce a signal proportional to the effective capacitance
across the biosensor cell. The biosensor apparatus and method are capable of determining
sample type and measuring glucose levels over a wide range of sample volumes.
