Abstract
This paper discusses a datapath design in which, the outputs of two adjacent cells are compared to distinguish between a ridge and a valley in a capacitive fingerprint sensor chip. A new switching scheme has been discussed which gives larger voltage differential (corresponding to ridge and valley) at the end of bit lines. Modifications are implemented for a small area of sensing cell to increase the DPI.
