摘要:
Method and apparatus for charging a power supply unit such as a rechargeable battery for use in data monitoring and management system using the ESD protection circuitry of the existing electrode contacts including guard contact and counter electrode thereby reducing system cost, complexity, and any unprotected battery contacts exposed for potential contamination is provided.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for providing a fault tolerant display unit for an electronic device such as a glucose meter, including display unit, and a controller unit operatively coupled to the display unit, the controller unit configured to control the display unit to display an information, where when a failure mode of the display unit occurs, the display unit is configured to display a modified information, where the modified information is different from the information for display under the control of the controller unit, is provided.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for providing a disposable power supply source integrated into the housing of the transmitter unit mount that is placed on the skin of the patient, and configured to receive the transmitter unit is disclosed. The transmitter unit mount is configured to be disposable with the analyte sensor so that power supply providing power to the transmitter unit is also replaced. The transmitter unit may include a rechargeable battery that is recharged by the power supply unit of the transmitter unit mount when the transmitter is mounted to the transmitter unit mount. Other energy store configurations including single large capacitor (supercap) or a capacitor and DC/DC converter configurations are disclosed.

摘要:
A system for the metering and delivery of small discrete volumes of liquid, comprised of a minimal number of inexpensive components. Fluid (103) is moved rrom a resrvoir (102) through a displacement chamber (104) by movement of a plunger (112). The plunger (112) is moved from a first limit (105) to a second limit (106) by an acuator comprised of a shape memory alloy (114) ans biasing spring (115). Electrical current is supplied to the shape memory alloy (114) by a control circuit (116) that cycles the movement of the plunger (112).
