Definition and Scientific Classification of Fingerprint Identification FPCB

意味

あ fingerprint identification FPC is a specialized flexible circuit board that deeply integrates fingerprint sensing technology. It provides electrical connection and mechanical support for the fingerprint sensor, driver IC, and signal processing chip. It ensures reliable fingerprint capture, 信号処理, and data transmission.

科学的分類

Based on fingerprint sensing principles, fingerprint identification FPCB supports three module types:

1. Capacitive Fingerprint Module FPC – Uses capacitance differences between ridges and valleys. This is the mainstream solution in consumer electronics.

2. Optical Fingerprint Module FPC – Captures fingerprint images using light refraction and reflection.

3. Ultrasonic Fingerprint Module FPC – Uses reflected ultrasound to build 3D fingerprint images. It offers strong penetration and high security.

Based on FPC structure, common types include standard double-sided FPC, FPC with raised electrodes, およびリジッドフレックスボード. UGPCB’s 2-layer PI double-sided FPC belongs to the standard double-sided category. It provides high cost-effectiveness, mature processes, and stable performance.

Design Essentials for Fingerprint Identification FPCB

1. Stack-up and Impedance Control

Signal transmission quality directly affects fingerprint recognition speed and accuracy. UGPCB focuses on these key parameters:

• インピーダンス制御: 50Ω ±10% (ref. IPC-2223)

• Signal loss: <0.3dB/cm @ 40MHz

• 誘電率: PI base material 3.2±0.2 @1GHz

2. Trace Precision and Via Design

• Min line width/space: 60μm/60μm

• Min via diameter: 0.15mm (標準), 0.1mm (ファインピッチ)

• Via copper thickness: ≥8μm (IPC-6013D compliant)

3. Board Flatness

The fingerprint identification FPC requires flatness <50μm. This ensures coplanarity and soldering reliability during SMT assembly for the sensor and IC.

4. 電磁互換性 (EMC) デザイン

Fingerprint modules are sensitive to electromagnetic interference (エミ). UGPCB incorporates the following measures:

• Tight coupling between signal and ground layers to minimize loop area.

• Ground guard traces around critical signal lines.

• Ground resistance of stiffener steel sheet ≤1Ω for effective ESD discharge.

Working Principle of Fingerprint Identification FPCB

Using the most common capacitive fingerprint sensing as an example, の fingerprint identification FPC works in four steps.

ステップ 1: Fingerprint capture. When a finger touches the sensor, the finger acts as one capacitor plate and the silicon sensor array acts as the other plate. Ridges (protrusions) and valleys (gaps) create different distances, thus different capacitance values. The capacitive sensor reads these differences to capture raw fingerprint signals.

ステップ 2: Signal transmission. Raw fingerprint signals travel through the fingerprint identification FPC to the signal processing chip. The FPC’s low-loss design ensures signal integrity and noise immunity.

ステップ 3: Signal processing and matching. The processing chip enhances, refines, and extracts features from the fingerprint image. It compares the extracted features with pre-stored fingerprint templates. Matching algorithms include minutiae-based matching, texture-based matching, and deep learning methods.

ステップ 4: Result output. When the similarity exceeds a preset threshold, the system outputs a successful recognition signal. Today’s mainstream capacitive sensors achieve recognition + unlock speeds of 0.15–0.2 seconds. Users experience almost no noticeable delay.
