Claim 15:
16. An electronic device, wherein the electronic device comprises: a display screen, a middle frame, and a fingerprint identification apparatus, wherein the fingerprint identification apparatus is disposed under the display screen, and is mounted to an upper surface of the middle frame; and the fingerprint identification apparatus comprises:
a support plate; and
at least one fingerprint sensor chip, the at least one fingerprint sensor chip being disposed at an upper surface of the support plate;
wherein an edge of the support plate bends upward to form an inverted step structure, the upper surface of the middle frame of the electronic device extends horizontally, downward and again horizontally to form a step structure and is provided with a groove wherein only a portion of the upper surface of the middle frame is proximate to entire lower surface of the support plate;
the inverted step structure of the support plate is configured to be mounted to an edge of the groove, so that the at least one fingerprint sensor chip is located under the display screen of the electronic device; and
the at least one fingerprint sensor chip is configured to receive a fingerprint detecting signal returned by reflection or scattering via a human finger on the display screen, wherein the fingerprint detecting signal is used to detect fingerprint information of the finger.
