Abstract

See full text

A hand-held test meter for use with an electrochemical-based analytical test strip in the determination of an analyte in a bodily fluid sample includes a housing (110), a micro-controller (112) disposed in the housing, an operating range test strip simulation circuit block (“ORTSSCB” 114) disposed in the housing and a strip port connector (“SPC” 106) configured to operationally receive an electrochemical-based analytical test strip. The ORTSSCB is in electrical communication with the SPC. In addition, the ORTSSCB is configured to simulate an electrochemical-based analytical test strip inserted into the SPC and an operating range of bodily fluid samples applied to such an electrochemical-based analytical test strip by sequentially presenting a plurality of electrical loads. Each of the plurality of electrical loads is configured as a first resistor in series with a parallel configuration of a second resistor and a first capacitor. Moreover, the SPC is configured in electrical communication with the micro-controller.
