Renesas Electronics Ultra-Small Fingerprint Sensor

Renesas Electronics Ultra-Small Fingerprint Sensor solution is a compact design meant for a USB dongle fingerprint authentication module. The Fingerprint Sensor solution implements the high performance and security features of the RA6M4 microcontroller (MCU), provided in a tiny package. Additionally, using modern USB-C™ in a cost-effective configuration with USB 2.0 data bandwidth/power supply range allows the fingerprint sensor application to get down to a 12mm x 12mm footprint (plus 8mm x 8mm for the USB-C connector itself).

Features

  • 100% coverage of electronics by the Renesas products portfolio, except the fingerprint sensor itself
  • Arm® Cortex®-M33 MCU with TrustZone®, secure crypto engine and full software package for easy implementation of secure applications
  • The optional expansion allows for authentication in an industrial automation host using a galvanically isolated RS-485 bus connection
