| Name: | VFS301 Fingerprint Sensor |
| Product URL: | http://www.validityinc.com/product.aspx?id=9 |
| Description: | The durable and cost-effective VFS301 fingerprint sensor offers lower power, improved performance, a smaller form factor, and key customization options compared to its predecessor, VFS201, resulting in an even better end user experience. Customization options include thin and variable z-heights, the industry's first flush mount capability, and a variety of color options. The mechanical options help make OEM integration easier. Features like flush mount will help provide a better end user experience. Custom color options allow OEMs to match the fingerprint sensor color with the industrial design and look of their devices, satisfying end consumers' desire for improved aesthetics on computer and electronic devices VFS301 continues to provide LiveFlex® Technology's superior durability and industry leading impact resistance. The product consists of a custom silicon chip bonded to a Kapton® plastic flex circuit, known as Chip-On-Flex (COF). Unlike competing technologies, Validity's actual fingerprint sensing area is made of durable plastic, not silicon, and is completely decoupled from the silicon drive chip. VFS301 uses an industry leading patented image reconstruction algorithm from Cogent Systems to acquire a high quality fingerprint image. Features Superior Durability * Fingerprint sensing area and silicon die are completely separated * Users touch a durable Kapton® plastic surface, never silicon * Sensor is made of flexible plastic, and is not just silicon covered with plastic * True Chip-On-Flex (COF) solution provides industry leading resistance to impact damage * Sensor is highly resistant to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), abrasion, liquids, and chemicals High Quality Imaging * Deep penetrating high Frequency RF transceiver acquires stronger signal from finger * Highly detailed images provide best False Accept / False Reject (FAR/FRR) statistics Improved Usability & Ergonomics * Low power consumption * USB Remote Wakeup supported * Navigation and scrolling modes available * Bi-directional swiping supported Flexible Product Options * Available in a variety of colors * Small footprint with flexible z-height options * Flush mounting capability * Variety of standard module reference designs available * Custom module options available * SPI for flash template storage supported Extensive Software Support * Compatible with the industry's leading biometric security software applications * Pre-Boot Authentication (PBA) supported * Single-Sign-On (SSO) solutions available |
