  • Patent number: 10354115
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a capacitive fingerprint sensor, and the capacitive fingerprint sensor includes: a fingerprint sensor electrode for sensing a fingerprint of a human body; a first transistor of which a current or an output voltage is changed according to a voltage change of capacitive coupling formed by fingerprint capacitance formed when a fingerprint contacts the fingerprint sensor electrode and coupling capacitance formed for capacitive coupling; a fifth transistor that resets a gate electrode of the first transistor and applies capacitive coupling to the gate electrode of the first transistor through a coupling pulse; a second transistor of which a current or an output voltage is changed due to a difference in the current flowing through the first transistor and a gate voltage is maintained by a capacitor; a third transistor that resets a gate electrode of the second transistor; and a fourth transistor that controls a current flowing through the second transistor or an output voltage of th

  • Patent number: 10210373
    Abstract: Provided is a fingerprint recognition sensor capable of sensing a fingerprint using optical and capacitive methods, the sensor including: a capacitive fingerprint sensing unit that includes a transistor (T2) in which a flowing current is changed depending on an output voltage of a fingerprint sensing electrode capable of sensing the humans fingerprint; and an optical fingerprint sensing unit which changes the flowing current in the transistor (T2) due to a difference in reverse current of a photodiode generated by light and shade depending on existence or non-existence of the fingerprint.

  • Patent number: 9811712
    Abstract: Provided is a intensified sensor array for static electricity having a structure in which a static electricity preventing wiring covers an upper surface of a pixel circuit to cut off static electricity, so when static electricity of a high voltage is momentarily generated, the static electricity induced through the static electricity preventing wiring is discharged, thereby being capable of effectively protecting the pixel circuit of a lower part from the static electricity.
