Figure 16. Reading of Frame
Notes: 1. For the first array or frame reading, 40 dummy clock cycles must be sent before the first data arrives. This is necessary for
the initialization of the chip pipeline. Consequently, the first synchronization sequences appear after 40 clock cycles. For the
following array readings, data arrives at each clock cycle. One should implement a synchronization routine in the protocol to
look for the F0F00200 pattern.
2. The Most Significant Bit (MSB) is sent first.
Reading of Entire Image The FingerChip delivers fingerprint slices or frames with a height of 0.4 mm and a width
of 11.6 mm (this equals 8 × 232 pixels). Pixels are sampled/read sequentially and are
synchronous with SCK. Raw slices are captured by the acquisition system and over-
lapped with the corresponding X or Y finger displacement computed by Atmel
reconstruction software. This reconstruction software supports a sweeping speed from 2
to 20 cm/s.
The table below shows finger speeds according to the different clock frequencies. The
reconstruction results are obtained after acquisition of all slices.
