Abstract:
Embodiments herein provide a dual optical and capacitance sensor. During a first time period, the dual sensor uses optical sensing to capture a fingerprint (e.g., to identify or verify the fingerprint). During a second time period, the dual sensor uses one or more capacitive sensor electrodes to perform capacitive sensing. The capacitive sensing may be absolute capacitive sensing or transcapacitive sensing.

Claim (Index 19):
A method, comprising:\n driving a constant voltage on a sensor electrode when performing optical sensing, wherein the sensor electrode is electrically coupled to a photosensor and is disposed in a planar capacitive sensing layer comprising a plurality sensor electrodes; measuring a fingerprint when performing optical sensing using the photosensor; and driving an AC signal on the sensor electrode when performing capacitive sensing.
