AI summary

A fingerprint identification data card and an electronic device are provided. The data card includes a case, a circuit board located in the case, an interface, and a fingerprint identifier. The case has a hole, the interface passes through the hole and the interface is connected with the circuit board, and the fingerprint identifier is disposed in the case and is connected with a processor on the circuit board in the case. It can be seen that, before using the data card, a user is required to input a fingerprint through the fingerprint identifier, and the user can use the data card only after passing authentication.
