Abstract
A method for performing fingerprint sensing is introduced. The method includes performing a predetermined number of consecutive fingerprint sensing cycles; informing a processing unit that a fingerprint sensing driver is ready for providing pre-scanned fingerprint data after each cycle of a fingerprint sensing cycle set, wherein the fingerprint sensing cycle set includes at least one of the fingerprint sensing cycles except for a last one of the fingerprint sensing cycles; and providing the processing unit with the pre-scanned fingerprint data obtained from the each cycle of the fingerprint sensing cycle set. An electronic module capable of performing fingerprint sensing and a computing apparatus capable of performing the same are also provided.
