==Original Abstract Submitted==

Electronic assembly and method () for detecting user's fingerprints, comprising a touch-sensitive surface () configured to register user touch; a fingerprint sensor () for detecting user's fingerprints on at least a part of the touch-sensitive surface; a first controller circuit (CU) configured to activate the fingerprint sensor and receive fingerprint information from the fingerprint sensor and a second controller circuit (CU) configured to detect the position and/or movement of a user's finger on () or above () the touch-sensitive surface in response to signals from the touch-sensitive surface. The electronic assembly further comprises a host system (CPU) connected to the first and second controller circuits, where the host system comprises circuitry for processing information received from the first and second controller circuits. The first controller circuit configured to receive information from the second controller circuit related to the current position () and/or movement (v) of the user's finger on or above the touch-sensitive surface and activate a portion () of the fingerprint sensor on which to perform fingerprint reading.
