Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an ultrasonic fingerprint identification circuit, a driving method thereof, and a fingerprint identification device. The circuit includes a transmitting electrode, a receiving electrode, a piezoelectric layer disposed between the transmitting electrode and the receiving electrode, and a signal output unit, the transmitting electrode is configured to receive an alternating current signal in a transmitting stage; the receiving electrode is connected with the signal output unit. The circuit further includes a photosensitive unit, with an anode connected with the receiving electrode and a cathode connected with a first fixed electric level so that the photosensitive unit is in a reverse bias state.
