Zusammenfassung:A direct-contact finger mouse realized in 0.7-/spl mu/m digital CMOS is presented. It is based on the motion detection of the fingerprint images acquired with a capacitive sensor. Stroking and tapping the chip surface with the finger causes movement of the cursor and clicking-like mouse. By properly partitioning analog collective computation and digital processing, a power consumption of about 900 /spl mu/W at 5 V is achieved. The sensor area is 3.8/spl times/3.8 mm/sup 2/, and overall chip size is 7.7/spl times/6.7 mm/sup 2/.
