Abstract
Described is a dose tracking mechanism for a drug delivery device, including a moveable component configured to move with respect to a housing during operation of the drug delivery device and an RFID device with an electric circuit having a resonance frequency. The electric circuit includes an antenna configured to transmit a wireless RFID signal at the resonance frequency and an electrical component operatively coupled to the moveable component and configured to modify the resonance frequency based on a position of the moveable component, such that the resonance frequency of the electric circuit is an indication of the position of the moveable component. In some instances, the position of the moveable component indicates a dose set or dispensed from the drug delivery device.
