Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If multiple chips are integrated into a single package structure, then functionality and performance are improved, but package size increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveperformanceVSAvoidpackage size
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transitions from planar chip arrangement to three-dimensional vertical stacking, where chips are arranged in multiple layers connected via through-silicon vias (TSVs). This dimensional change allows multiple functional chips to be integrated within a compact footprint, improving performance while controlling package size.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements nested structures where redistribution layers, dielectric materials, and conductive vias are embedded within each other in multiple stacked layers. Each layer contains functional elements that are nested within the overall package structure, maximizing space utilization and enabling high-density integration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

2Reliability

If chip integration density is increased, then performance is improved, but manufacturing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveperformanceVSAvoidmanufacturing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the integrated package into discrete functional modules (different types of chips) that can be manufactured separately and then stacked. Each chip layer can be processed independently using standard semiconductor manufacturing techniques, reducing overall manufacturing complexity despite high integration density.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-forming TSVs, redistribution layers, and dielectric structures on each chip before stacking. This preliminary preparation of interconnection structures simplifies the final assembly process and enables precise alignment, reducing manufacturing complexity for high-density integration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
