FPC introduces touch fingerprint sensors FPC1140 and FPC1145

Fingerprint Cards (FPC) introduces two new touch fingerprint sensors, FPC1140 and FPC1145, enabling increased industrial design options with maintained industry leading fingerprint recognition performance.

FPC1140 and FPC1145 are the smallest touch fingerprint sensors brought forward by FPC to date, providing mobile device manufacturers with new possibilities to integrate touch fingerprint sensors in smartphones and other devices. Benefiting from the experiences gained by introducing the five touch fingerprint sensor products FPC1020, FPC1021, FPC1025, FPC1150 and FPC1155 during 2014, new touch fingerprint sensors FPC1140 and FPC1145 provides state of the art biometric performance while reducing size and increasing industrial design options.

Samples for FPC1140 and FPC1145 have been provided to customers and development projects with module manufacturers and device OEMs are ongoing. FPC1140 and FPC1145 are ready for mass production during Q2 2015.

Jörgen Lantto, acting President and Chief Executive Officer of FPC, comments: "Our flexible ASIC architecture not only provides the industry's best touch fingerprint sensor performance, it also allows for short lead times in answering to customers' increased needs. This has enabled us to introduce FPC1140 and FPC1145 in fast response to the need for mobile device OEMs to integrate touch fingerprint sensors in a wider product portfolio, where increased industrial design options is a critical factor. With the addition of FPC1140 and FPC1145 to our product portfolio, we further improve what is already the industry's most competitive offering of touch fingerprint sensors to mobile device OEMs."
