A fingerprint detection device including a plurality of fingerprint sensing elements, and each fingerprint sensing element includes: a sensing electrode for forming a sensing capacitance from a relationship with a subject; an amplifier having a first input end connected to the sensing electrode and a second input end into which a bias signal, of which a potential is changed from a high level to a low level or from the low level to the high level during a fingerprint detection operation, is inputted; and a gain controller including a plurality of sub-feedback capacitances, the gain controller selectively connected between the first input end and an output end of the amplifier.

Fingerprint detection device and driving method therefor

A touch detection apparatus includes a sensor pad to output a signal based on a touch state in response to an alternating voltage in a floating state after being charged, an operational amplifier including a first input connected to an output of the sensor pad and a second input to receive the alternating voltage, a level shift detection unit to detect a touch signal based on a difference between a voltage variation at an output end of the operational amplifier caused by the alternating voltage and a voltage variation at the output end of the operational amplifier caused by occurrence of a touch, and a switching unit including a first switch to control an electric potential between a first input and the output end of the operational amplifier and a second switch to connect or not the sensor pad and the first input of the operational amplifier.
