Abstract
A fingerprint sensor pixel and fingerprint imaging device are disclosed. A fingerprint sensor pixel includes a capacitive sensor and a readout circuit. The capacitance of the capacitive sensor changes in response to contact with a fingerprint. The readout circuit includes a first thin film transistor (TFT) used to convert the capacitance of the capacitive sensor to a representative current, a coupling capacitor used to capacitively couple a readout pulse to the gate of the said second TFT sharing the connection with the capacitive sensor pixel, and a second TFT used to reset the voltage of the capacitive sensor. Multiple fingerprint sensor pixels can be arranged in an array to form a fingerprint imaging device.
