This paper introduced a fast fingerprint identification system based on TMS320VC5416 DSP chip and MBF200 solidity fingerprint sensor. It precipitates fingerprint identification device developing into the direction of miniaturization, embedded and automatic.It recommends fingerprint identification system hardware and software design and the main system processing flow, aim at fingerprint identification arithmetic, the influence of system operation speed is being researched at the same time. High-speed data acquisition system is been built in order to achieve a DSP fingerprint identification system with high efficiency and low cost.
