  • Abstract
    Development of a standard CMOS fingerprint identification system has necessitated the search for a photodetector with the optimum performance of responsivity, crosstalk, dynamic range, and matching parameters. Pixel resolution is also important in order that fingerprint features on the order of 80 μm may be detected. This paper discusses six phototransistor configurations easily produced in CMOS technology and compares their experimental performance
