Abstract

An apparatus for controlling a microfluidic circuit. The circuit comprises: (a) a single microprocessor which is positioned within a single microprocessor module, said single microprocessor being used for performance in real time of: (i) control of microfluidic components within said microfluidic circuit; (ii) accumulation of data from sensors of the microfluidic circuit; and (iii) analysis of said accumulated data in order to possibly adjust in real time at least one of the components of the microfluidic circuit based on said analysis results, thereby providing a real-time feedback; (b) a digital control bus for communicating digital control signals from the microprocessor module to one or more digitally-controlled microfluidic components; and (c) a sensors bus for communicating signals from one or more sensors to the microprocessor module.
