Finger print scanner

prabhuraj
I have to work on finger print scanner(Suprema umf3040). Can any one tell
me the compatible finger print SDK for this and also any useful links about
interfacing finger print scanner with ARM9 samsung s3c2440?  

Thanks,
Prabhuraj

Hi
Previously we have worked on a project with sec2440 and a fingerprint
scanner. The scanner was using serial port to communicate with the s3c2440.
We were not able to find any SDK for using fingerprint modules. So we have
made our own functions based on the information given in the datasheet.

I have been looking at this for a client who is also using the Suprema
scanners. There is probably no SDK as such so you will probably have to
develop your own drivers for it unless you can get a source code SDK from
Suprema.

For interface I would suggest the serial ports. This will keep your design
simple and won't require a driver for the likes of USB.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
There is one SDK, which is mentioned in the Suprema website. My doubt is,
is it necessary to have an SDK for fast execution of the project? If so
then how to choose for the best SDK?

I appreciate any help regarding this ASAP.

prabhuraj, you should implement all the serial protocol from scratch. There
is not other choices.
