Abstract
A pixel reading device, which includes a first capacitor, a second capacitor, a voltage generating circuit, and an analog front-end (AFE) circuit, is provided. A first terminal of the first capacitor is coupled to a fingerprint sensing pixel to receive a sensing voltage. A first terminal of the second capacitor is coupled to a second terminal of the first capacitor. The voltage generating circuit provide a compensation voltage to a second terminal of the second capacitor. During a sensing period of the fingerprint sensing pixel, the compensation voltage is at an initial level. During a level reading period of the fingerprint sensing pixel, the compensation voltage is pulled up from the initial level to a compensation level to compensate a common mode component of the sensing voltage. An input terminal of the AFE circuit is coupled to the second terminal of the first capacitor.
