Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.
Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a fingerprint sensing system according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a fingerprint sensing system according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, a fingerprint sensing system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is disposed under a display screen 200. The fingerprint sensing system 100 includes a substrate 120, a support frame 130, at least one support post 140, and a sensor 110.
In the present embodiment, the display panel 200 is, for example, an Organic Light-Emitting Diode display panel (OLED display panel), but the invention is not limited thereto.
In the embodiment, the sensor 110 may be a Thin Film Transistor (TFT), a Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) or a Charge Coupled Device (CCD) photosensor. Each sensor 110 may include a plurality of sensing pixels arranged in a sensing array, wherein each sensing pixel may include at least one photodiode (photodiode), but the invention is not limited thereto.
In the present embodiment, the display screen 200 may have a fingerprint sensing area. The sensing area of the sensor 110 corresponds to the fingerprint sensing area and is disposed below the fingerprint sensing area. Specifically, when sensing a fingerprint, the user brings a finger close to or presses the fingerprint sensing area of the display 200, and the display 200 emits an illumination beam to the finger. The illuminating light beam is reflected by the finger to generate a reflected light beam. The reflected beam passes through the display screen 200 and is then passed to the sensor 110. Thus, the optical signals received by the sensor 110 form a fingerprint image.
In the present embodiment, the substrate 120 may be a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) or a Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC). To further reduce the volume of the fingerprint sensing system 100, the substrate 120 is preferably a flexible printed circuit board. When the substrate 120 is a printed circuit board or a flexible printed circuit board, the sensor 110 is electrically connected to the substrate 120. The substrate 120 is used for receiving the signal of the sensor 110.
In one embodiment, the substrate 120 may also be a flexible printed circuit board (fpc) including a stiffener (stiffener).
In the present embodiment, the supporting frame 130 and the supporting columns 140 are disposed between the substrate 120 and the display screen 200, and the supporting frame 130 is disposed at the periphery of the supporting columns 140. The sensor 110 is disposed on the substrate 120 and accommodated in the accommodating spaces S1 and S2 formed by the supporting frame 130 and the supporting posts 140.
In this embodiment, the supporting frame 130 may be foam adhesive, so that the supporting frame 130 is adhered to the substrate 120 and the display screen 200 at the same time. Therefore, the sensor 110 can be disposed under the display screen 200 through the configuration of the support frame 130.
Fig. 1 and 2 illustrate that the accommodating spaces S1 and S2 are respectively provided with a sensor 110. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and a plurality of sensors 110 may be disposed in each of the receiving spaces S1 and S2.
In one embodiment, the projection area of each of the accommodating spaces S1 and S2 on the substrate 120 is larger than the projection area of the sensor 110 accommodated in each of the accommodating spaces S1 and S2 on the substrate 120.
In one embodiment, the supporting frame 130 and the supporting column 140 are made of the same material, but the invention is not limited thereto. In another embodiment, the support frame 130 and the support column 140 may be integrally formed. When the support frame 130 and the support posts 140 are made of the same material, or when the support frame 130 and the support posts 140 are integrally formed, the support frame 130 and the support posts 140 can be manufactured in the same manufacturing step. Accordingly, the fingerprint sensing system 100 of embodiments of the present invention may further reduce manufacturing time.
In another embodiment, the fingerprint sensing system 100 may further include an optical module disposed between the fingerprint sensing area and the sensor 110 to direct the reflected light beam to the sensor 110 to form a fingerprint image. The optical module is, for example, a lens assembly, has a collimator structure, and/or comprises a micro-lens (micro-lens) layer and/or a micro-hole (pin-holes) layer. The present invention does not limit the type and kind of the optical module.
Based on the above, in the fingerprint sensing system 100 of an embodiment of the utility model, because carriage 130, base plate 120 and support column 140 form two at least accommodation spaces S1 and S2, make sensor 110 set up respectively in different accommodation spaces S1, S2, consequently, carriage 130 and support column 140 strengthen the holding power of display screen 200 effectively, avoid display screen 200 to produce deformation because of pressing, make the utility model discloses a fingerprint identification rate of fingerprint sensing system 100 of an embodiment promotes.

In this embodiment, the fingerprint sensing system 100 ' includes a sensor 110, a support frame 130 ', and at least one support post 140 '. In detail, the sensor 110 is disposed on the substrate 120. The sensing region 110R of the fingerprint sensing system 100 'is divided into at least two sub-sensing regions 110R1, 110R2 by the supporting pillars 140'.
In this embodiment, the fingerprint sensing system 100' further comprises a peripheral frame 150. The peripheral frame 150 is disposed on the substrate 120 and is disposed at the periphery of the support frame 130'. The supporting frame 130 'and the supporting posts 140' are directly disposed on the sensor 110 by, for example, adhesion. The peripheral frame 150 is, for example, foam cotton, so that the fingerprint sensing system 100' is disposed under the display screen 200.
