Abstract: A microfluidic device may include an impedance sensor located within a fluidic priming orifice within a fluidic channel of the microfluidic device, and control logic. The control logic is to force a current into the impedance sensor to sense the presence of a fluid within the fluidic channel at the locations of the impedance sensor, and determine if the fluid is primed into the fluidic channel based on the impedance values sensed by the impedance sensor.

Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a fluidic system is described. The fluidic system includes a fluidic die. The fluidic die includes a substrate in which a number of fluid chambers are formed. Each fluid chamber includes a fluid actuator disposed within the fluid chamber. A number of actuator sensors are disposed on the substrate to output at least one value indicative of a sensed characteristic of fluid actuators. A number of substrate temperature sensors are also disposed on the substrate to sense a temperature for the substrate. An actuator evaluation device of the fluidic system determines a state of the fluid actuator based at least in part on the at least one value and at least one correction value associated with the temperature sensed by the number of substrate temperature sensors.

Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a fluid analysis system is described. The fluid analysis system includes a fluidic die. The fluidic die includes a fluid chamber to hold a volume of fluid to be analyzed and an impedance sensor disposed within the fluid chamber. The impedance sensor measures an impedance of the fluid in the fluid chamber. The fluid analysis system also includes an evaluator device electrically coupled to the impedance sensor. The evaluator device determines at least one property of the fluid based on the impedance.
