Methods and devices are provided for controlling the impact of undesirable short circuits between non-adjacent but critically matched pairs of electrodes in a co-planar electrochemical sensor. In one embodiment, the size and/or shape of at least one electrode is configured to induce a short circuit between electrode pairs for which connectivity is pre-set to be measured by a meter in order to indicate a short circuit between a different pair for which such connectivity is not pre-set to be measured, hi another embodiment, the surface area of one or more electrodes, other than the working electrode, which are designed to be exposed to a sample fluid is significantly limited in relation to the surface area of the working electrode that is exposed to the sample fluid.

L'invention concerne un procédé et des dispositifs permettant de contrôler les effets des courts-circuits indésirables entre des paires d'électrodes non adjacentes mais présentant un appariement critique dans un capteur électrochimique coplanaire. Dans une forme de réalisation, au moins une électrode présente une dimension et/ou une forme calculées de manière à provoquer un court-circuit entre une paire d'électrodes dont la connectivité est mesurée par une unité de mesure, afin d'indiquer un court-circuit entre une paire différente d'électrodes, entre lesquelles la connectivité n'est pas mesurée. Dans une forme de réalisation différente, la surface active d'une ou de plusieurs électrodes, autres que l'électrode de travail, conçues pour être exposées à un échantillon de fluide, est sensiblement limitée relativement à la surface active exposée à l'échantillon de fluide de l'électrode de travail.
