They're selling parts, not manufacturing them. I didn't bother to hunt
down the manufacturers (there could be more than one). You could try
calling the part sellers to find out who are their suppliers.
Obviously there is no light shone onto your finger to scan its ridges. >Smartphones don't use optical scanners nor ultrasonic scanners. Thermal >scanners would have problems measuring in the environs under which >smartphones are used, like sub-zero temperatures. That leave
capacitance scanning. Multiple technologies are not precluded: optical
and capacitance can be compined as well as adding ultrasonics. However,
look at the part that goes into your phone. I see no means to use
optical scanning. I doubt ultrasonic is incorporated. I cannot be
positive because I have not researched every phone ever made, but I
think ultrasonic scanners are in those phone models where the
fingerprint scanner is embedded in the display (screen), like the iQOO 9
Pro which was release Jan 2022; see:

The Samsung Galaxy S10 and S10+ have ultrasonic scanners in their
screens. Those were released back in March 2019.
that I found for your phone, nope, your c.2016 phone just has a
capacitance scanner. You have a front-mounted scanner, not an in-screen >scanner.

I don't see the word "capacitance" (or any form of it) on that page. I'm not doubting your
statement, in fact I'm guessing that you are correct, just wondering how you found out.
