1. A method of determining the concentration of an analyte in a biological sample, comprising:
- inserting an analyte sensor in a sensor port of an analyte monitoring device, the sensor port comprising;
a first set of contacts positioned along a top portion and a bottom portion of the sensor port for contacting a first analyte sensor having an opposing electrode contact configuration;
a second set of contacts positioned on the top portion or the bottom portion of the sensor port for contacting a second analyte sensor having a co-planar electrode contact configuration;
wherein the analyte monitoring device comprises a processor programmed to;
receive a signal indicative of the concentration of the analyte from the first set of contacts, andreceive a signal indicative of the concentration of the analyte from the second set of contacts; and
depositing the biological sample on the analyte sensor;
receiving, by the processor, the signal from either the first set of contacts or the second set of contacts; and
determining the concentration of the analyte in the biological sample based on the signal.
