US Patent 11776301 Fingerprint detection apparatus and electronic device

A fingerprint detection apparatus and an electronic device are provided. The fingerprint detection apparatus is applied under a display screen to implement under-screen optical fingerprint identification, including: a fingerprint sensor; the fingerprint sensor includes: N groups of sub-pixels, where N is a positive integer greater than 1; and different groups of sub-pixels in the N groups of sub-pixels respectively receive light signals with different characteristics in light signals returned by reflection or scattering via a finger, and light signals received by each group of sub-pixels in the N groups of sub-pixels are used to form one pixel in a fingerprint image of the finger.
