GLUCOSE SENSOR

A method includes monitoring, via a device including an electrochemical cell, an electrical current that is proportional to an impedance of the electrochemical cell, and responsive to determining that the electrical current satisfies a threshold, measuring, via the device, a plurality of impedances of the electrochemical cell corresponding to a plurality of frequencies. The method further includes determining a charge transfer conductance and a solution resistance based on the plurality of impedances at fewer than four of the corresponding plurality of frequencies and determining the presence of electrochemical interference based on the solution resistance and the charge transfer conductance. The method further includes outputting an alert based on the determination of the presence of electrochemical interference.

MULTI-PART SENSING ELECTRODE CONNECTOR
20230116242 · 2023-04-13 ·

A thin form of an electrical connector for creating a detachable connection between two circuit elements is disclosed. When the connector is employed, only an outer electrode present on a portion of the connector is exposed to the ambient environment and the rest of the electronics of both the connector and of a device into which the device is integrated can be insulated from the ambient environment. The parts of the connector can create a small three-dimensional interlock structure to seal off contact area and to facilitate electrical contacts between two circuit elements. The connector structure is flexible, allowing the connector to be embedded into a curved surface of a device that can use the electrode exposed to the environment to obtain data regarding the environment.
