The most advanced fingerprint sensor
- click image to enlarge
The TCS5, UPEK’s 5th generation fingerprint sensor, is the most advanced silicon fingerprint sensor available today; designed to enable mass adoption of fingerprint biometrics into consumer electronics products.
Fingerprint sensors need to withstand human interaction and the elements. The TCS5 offers the most robust fingerprint sensor on the market.
Features
- withstands 6H hardness pencil & ballpoint pen scratch with up to 20N applied force
- withstands pen drop from up to 60cm height
- abrasion test: withstands over 10 million swipes
- waterproof: withstands being soaked for 24hours in water
- resistant to chemicals: tested to resist a 24 hour contamination of surface with over 20 chemicals
- resistant up to +/-15kV air ESD discharge (qualification in progress with target to qualify for up to +/-30kV air ESD resistance)
The sensor is at the same time cosmetically appealing, since the sensor surface is entirely black, with a thin silver bezel edge.
