Abstract

An analyte meter having a test strip port is configured to detect an inserted test strip using an unpowered grounded op amp while the analyte meter is in sleep mode. After a test strip is inserted and the meter is activated, the op amp is powered and provides the sample current for measuring an analyte concentration in the sample.
