Abstract
A sensor includes a non-conductive substrate and a circuit on the non-conductive substrate. The circuit includes a primary resistive element on the non-conductive substrate having a first end and a second end, wherein the primary resistive element has a predetermined configuration; a secondary resistive element on the non-conductive substrate having a plurality of taps connected to the primary resistive element at a plurality of predetermined connection points on the predetermined configuration, the plurality of predetermined connection points defining a plurality of unique resistive paths through at least a portion of the predetermined configuration; and the plurality of unique resistive paths having a plurality of resistance values, the plurality resistance values determined using a non-linear distribution function. A sensor is configured to perform at least one of quantitative and qualitative analysis of an analyte in a sample of fluid.
