The use of larger area sensors, including sensors that capture a fingerprint in a single touch as well as sensors that capture a rolled fingerprint, increase the amount of the fingerprint that is captured. Non-contact systems that do not even require that a fingerprint sensor be touched can also be developed. All of these capabilities are desirable in many commercial applications to increase the confidence level of the identity that is being authenticated. This requirement is significantly different from current fingerprint applications such as accessing a PC where only adults, with their large fingers, are involved. The A336 Chip is in development.
Specifications are subject to change without notice.
A limited number of partnering opportunities is available to give you a head start in developing products using it. Please contact us for more information on our partnering program. All of these functions can be provided by an A336 Chip. Almost everything is built into the A336 to reduce the size, cost and power dissipation of fingerprint systems. Memory and many types of interfaces are all built into the A336.
