Abstract
A medical sensor includes an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), medical hardware, and a communication module. The ASIC is communicatively coupled to the medical hardware and communication module. The ASIC is configured to receive measurement signals from the medical hardware and provide the measurement signals to the communication module. The communication module is configured to process the measurement signal into measurement results and transmit the measurement results to a remove device. The communication module includes an application layer for processing the measurement signals and a link layer for transmitting the measurement results. The ASIC is configured to detect that a voltage supplied to the ASIC is below a threshold level and determine an amount of time that the voltage has been below the threshold level. The ASIC is further configured to respond to the voltage supplied to the ASIC being below a threshold level based on the determined amount of time.
