2nd generation according to the following from Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touch_ID


 As of August 2022, the iPhone 6S, 6S Plus, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus, SE (2nd generation), SE (3rd generation), 2016 and later MacBook Pro, 2018 and later MacBook AiriPad Pro (2nd generation) and later, iPad Air (3rd generation) and later, and iPad mini (5th generation) or later are the Apple devices which use the second generation sensor.
