Abstract:
In one implementation, a method is described. The method includes determining an operational characteristic of sensors of a sensor array. The method further includes selecting a group of sensors in the array based on the operational characteristic of sensors in the group. The method further includes enabling readout of the sensors in the selected group. The method further includes receiving output signals from the enabled sensors, the output signals indicating chemical reactions occurring proximate to the sensors of the sensor array.

Claim (Index 9):
A method for nucleic acid sequencing, comprising:\n providing template nucleic acids to at least some of a plurality of locations coupled to sensors of an array; analyzing output signals of the sensors of the array to identify which locations in the plurality of locations contain the disposed template nucleic acids; selecting a group of sensors coupled to identified locations containing the disposed template nucleic acids; introducing known nucleotides within at least some of the plurality of locations; and measuring the output signals of the selected sensors to detect sequencing reaction byproducts resulting from incorporation of the introduced known nucleotides into one of more primers hybridized to at least one of the disposed template nucleic acids.
