The type of hardware used in a glucometer.
A glucometer (glucose meter) is a medical technology device used measure glucose concentration in a given solution. The units of measurement used vary by region and they are milligram per deciliter (mg/dl) and millimole per liter (mmol/L). Glucometers are critical elements in Home Blood Glucose Monitoring (HBGM) devices used by diabetics who suffer from Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. HBGM devices are used to monitor blood sugar levels on a daily basis with multiple measurements taken in a single day (Dalvi).
The glucometer hardware described in this paper is based on designs by Freescale Semiconductor Company. The
