1. A method of processing signals from an analyte sensor, comprising:
- coupling a first amplifier to a second amplifier and a signal source;
determining that a first signal at an output terminal of the second amplifier exceeds a converter tolerance value; and
processing a second signal at the output terminal of the second amplifier when the first signal at the output terminal of the second amplifier exceeds the converter tolerance value.
