摘要： A fingerprint sensor package, including a sensing side for sensing fingerprint information and a separate connection side for electrically connecting the fingerprint sensor package to a host device, is disclosed. The fingerprint sensor package can also include a sensor integrated circuit facing the sensing side and substantially surrounded by a fill material. The fill material includes vias at peripheral locations around the sensor integrated circuit. The fingerprint sensor package can further include a redistribution layer on the sensing side which redistributes connections of the sensor integrated circuit to the vias. The connections can further be directed through the vias to a ball grid array on the connection side. Some aspects also include electrostatic discharge traces positioned at least partially around a perimeter of the connection side. Methods of manufacturing are also disclosed.

摘要： An apparatus for reducing noise in fingerprint sensing circuits is disclosed in one embodiment of the invention as including a fingerprint sensing area onto which a user can apply a fingerprint. An analog front end is coupled to the fingerprint sensing area and is configured to generate an analog response signal. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) samples the analog response signal and converts the sample to a digital value, which may be received by a digital device such as a processor or CPU. To reduce the amount of the noise that is present in the analog response signal and therefore reflected in the digital value, the digital device may be shut down while the ADC is sampling the analog response signal.

摘要： A display driver circuit for driving a flat panel display including circuitry for detecting integrity of bonding of outputs of the driver circuit to the display. The bond integrity detecting circuitry includes a test mode current source which applies current to the output being tested to raise its voltage to a threshold level. At a defined sampling time following initiation of application of the test mode current, the voltage on the output being tested is compared to the threshold level, and the result of the comparison is stored and output from the driver circuit. If the voltage of the output has not reached the threshold level at the defined sampling time, the output connection is determined to be good.

摘要： A column-driver integrated circuit, and related method, for driving the columns of LCD displays uses paired digital-to-analog converters to provide analog signals in an upper voltage range and in a lower voltage range. During a first drive cycle, first and second digital data words are provided to the first and second digital-to-analog converters; the first and second digital data words represent the magnitudes, within the upper voltage range and lower voltage range, respectively, of the analog signals to be driven onto first and second columns of the LCD display. The analog signal generated by the first D/A converter is selected, as by a multiplexer, onto the first column of the display, and the analog signal generated by the second D/A converter is selected onto the second column of the display. During a second subsequent drive cycle, first and second digital data words are again provided to the first and second D/A converters, but now the first and second digital data word represent the magnitudes, within the upper voltage range and lower voltage range, respectively, of the analog signals to be driven onto the second and first columns, respectively, of the LCD display. The analog signal generated by the first D/A converter during the second drive cycle is selected onto the second column of the display, and the analog signal generated by the second D/A converter is selected onto the first column of the display.

摘要： An apparatus for culling substantially redundant data in a fingerprint sensing circuit is disclosed in one embodiment of the invention as including an input module, a storage module, a comparator module, and a determination module. The input module may receive sets of data samples from an array of fingerprint sensing elements. The sets of data samples may be stored by the storage module. The comparator module may calculate a difference between each data sample from a first-received set, and a corresponding data sample from a second-received set. The determination module may count the number of difference values that exceed a predetermined difference limit, and identify the second set of data samples as redundant if the number of difference values counted is less than a pre-set count limit.
