Abstract: Provided is a weak-signal reading circuit for a sensor, comprising a sensing signal input amplifying unit and a signal reading unit. The sensing signal input amplifying unit comprises a first transistor, wherein a gate and a drain of the first transistor are connected with a sensor; the signal reading unit is connected to a source of the first transistor, the first transistor is turned on when the sensor generates a sensing signal, so that the sensing signal is captured by the signal reading unit. When the sensor senses a signal and generates a voltage, the first transistor tends to be switched on, then the signal reading unit reads the sensing signal through the first transistor which has been turned on, that is, by providing the first transistor, the weak-signal reading circuit for sensor can be self-driven according to the voltage generated by the sensor without an extra drive circuit, thereby achieving low power consumption.
