Abstract
A fingerprint sensing apparatus having a large-area sensing mechanism is provided that includes at least three optical fingerprint sensing circuits and a processing circuit. The at least three optical fingerprint sensing circuits are configured to perform sensing within a plurality of sensing areas to obtain a plurality of sensed images, wherein each of the sensing areas corresponds to one of the optical fingerprint sensing circuits. The processing circuit is electrically coupled to the optical fingerprint sensing circuits to receive the sensed images and is configured to splice the sensed images together to form an integrated sensed image.
