Abstract
A fingerprint sensor module includes a fingerprint sensor assembly with a circuit element attached. The fingerprint sensor assembly is electrically connected to a printed circuit board (PCB) substrate with a cutout to accommodate the circuit element. The entire fingerprint sensor assembly and at least part of the PCB are encapsulated in a encapsulating material to produce a structurally robust fingerprint sensor module suitable for integration into an electronics device such as a smartphone or other 'Internet of Things' (IOT) electronic device.
