1. An apparatus, comprising:
- an analyte sensor having a portion in fluid contact with bodily fluid under a skin surface to monitor an analyte level in the bodily fluid;
a processor operatively coupled to the analyte sensor; and
a memory operatively coupled to the processor for storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to;
receive a first signal having a first signal resolution generated by the analyte sensor and associated with the monitored analyte level;
receive a second signal having a second signal resolution generated by the analyte sensor and associated with the monitored analyte level;
compare the received second signal to a predetermined threshold level; and
process one of the received first or the second signals based on the comparison of the received second signal to the predetermined threshold level.

11. A method, comprising:
-
receiving a first signal having a first signal resolution and associated with a monitored analyte level, the first signal generated by an analyte sensor having a portion in fluid contact with bodily fluid under a skin surface to monitor an analyte level in the bodily fluid; receiving a second signal having a second signal resolution generated by the analyte sensor and associated with the monitored analyte level; comparing the received second signal to a predetermined threshold level; and processing one of the received first or the second signals based on the comparison of the received second signal to the predetermined threshold level. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
