Ultrasonic sensor, ultrasonic sensing device, display device and biometric data sensing method

Abstract

According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, an ultrasonic sensor, an ultrasonic sensing device, a display device, and a biometric information sensing method are provided, in which a first transistor and a second transistor disposed in respective pixels adjacent to each other are driven by a same scan line, and the first transistor controlling the application of a high voltage and the second transistor controlling sensing are configured with different channel types; therefore, a driving interval for generating ultrasonic waves is separated in time from a sensing interval for sensing reflected ultrasonic waves. Accordingly, an interval for applying the high voltage is reduced; therefore, power consumption can be reduced, and the degradation of components constituting the ultrasonic sensor can be overcome or reduced. In addition, sensing can be performed in an area in which ultrasonic waves are generated; thus, sensing sensitivity can be improved.
