Abstract
A touch device with fingerprint identification function includes a touch unit and a fingerprint identification unit. The touch unit has a touch section and a non-touch section. The non-touch section is disposed around the touch section in adjacency to the touch section. The fingerprint identification unit is disposed on the non-touch section of the touch unit. The fingerprint identification unit is integrated with the touch unit. Therefore, it is unnecessary to additionally form a perforation or a channel on the touch device for arranging the fingerprint identification unit as in the conventional touch device. In this case, the structural strength of the touch device will not be deteriorated. Also, the manufacturing cost can be lowered.
