Abstract
Various techniques and apparatuses are disclosed that provide for pixelated display modules that integrate an ultrasonic fingerprint or biometric sensing capability. In some implementations, the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor and the display components of the display module may share a common backplane. In some implementations, the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor may share a flex cable with other components in the display module. In some implementations, the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor may leverage conductive traces on a cover glass used to provide for touch input to the display module.
