    Abstract: This disclosure relates to ingress-tolerant input devices. Aspects of the disclosure relate to an ingress-tolerant switch assembly for operating an electronic device in an ingress-protected manner. The switch assembly includes a button configured to be coupled to an outer surface of an enclosure of the electronic device. The switch assembly also includes a spring operably coupled to the button and a magnet coupled to the spring. A pressing force applied by a user to the button overcomes a spring force of the spring to move the magnet into proximity of the magnetic sensor to cause the magnetic sensor to generate a sensor signal for performing a function of the electronic device.

    Abstract: An improved sensor set is provided for sensing of a body characteristic, such as glucose. The sensor set includes a mounting base for the sensor and a connector to connect to the mounting base. The connector may contain sensor electronics for wired or wireless communication to an external monitor or display. The mounting base includes a connector fitting adapted to fit into a tubular recess in the connector, wherein the connector fitting includes a key. In some embodiments, the proximal end of the sensor folds around the key such that there are contact pads on both sides of the key. The mounting base and connector include additional features, such as pegs and prongs that allow for unique fitting of compatible mounting bases and connectors, while locking out non-compatible components.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to ingress-tolerant input devices comprising sliders. Aspects of the disclosure relate to an ingress-tolerant switch assembly for operating an electronic device in an ingress-protected manner. The switch assembly is at least partially disposed on an outer surface of an enclosure of the electronic device and generally includes a spring, a magnet coupled to the spring, and a slider coupled to the magnet. A spring force of the spring is overcome by a user moving the slider relative to the enclosure such that the slider moves the magnet into proximity of the magnetic sensor to cause the magnetic sensor to generate a sensor signal for performing a function of the electronic device.
