1. A device comprising;
- a surface;
a detector configured to detect changes in capacitance on the surface; and
a clock configured to keep track of the time as changes in capacitance on the surface occur; and
a processor configured to correlate the change in capacitance on the surface with the concentration of the analyte.

Abstract
Described are devices and methods for detecting the match quality and concentration of analytes binding to an electrode surface. The devices utilize a clock to measure capacitance change as a function of time and a temperature controller to measure the capacitance change as a function of temperature.
