Abstract

Provided are a fingerprint identification apparatus and an electronic device. The fingerprint identification apparatus is applicable to an electronic device having a display screen, and includes: a fingerprint sensor chip; and a substrate, where an upper surface of the substrate extends downward to form a first groove, and at least a portion of the fingerprint sensor chip is disposed in the first groove and electrically connected to the substrate. By disposing at least a portion of the fingerprint identification sensor in the first groove, not only could costs and complexity of the electronic device be reduced, but also a thickness of the fingerprint identification apparatus could be effectively reduced.
