Abstract

A fingerprint sensing device and a driving method for a fingerprint sensing panel thereof are provided. The driving method includes: detecting whether a finger touch occurs on the fingerprint sensing panel; during a period of the finger touch, switching the brightness mode of the fingerprint sensing panel from a normal brightness mode to a high brightness mode so as to sense a fingerprint; driving the fingerprint sensing panel to sense the fingerprint before a mode switching time point at which the brightness mode of the fingerprint sensing panel is switched to the high brightness mode. The fingerprint sensing panel includes a pixel row, wherein the pixel row is subjected to a reset, an exposure period and a sampling in sequence to output a row sensing result, the reset is earlier than the mode switching time point, and the sampling is later than the mode switching time point.
