Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional angle-cutting technologies for display panels suffer from accuracy issues due to comparator delays, resulting in a lower limit value of angle-cutting voltage that is less than the preset value, which deteriorates product performance.

Innovation Solution

An angle-cutting circuit comprising an angle-cutting chip, a comparison module, and an adjustment module, where the comparison module compares the output voltage from the chip to a threshold voltage, and when it is less than the threshold, a control signal is generated to raise the lower limit value of the angle-cutting voltage, using N-type MOS transistors and resistors to adjust the voltage accordingly.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If a comparator is used in the angle-cutting means, then the angle-cutting function can be implemented, but the comparator delay period causes the actual lower limit value of angle-cutting voltage to be less than the preset value, deteriorating accuracy

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of angle-cutting voltageVSAvoidcomparator delay period
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by proactively increasing the lower limit value of angle-cutting voltage before the comparator delay can cause inaccuracies. The adjustment module detects the comparator delay effect and preemptively raises the voltage threshold to compensate for the delay period, ensuring the angle-cutting voltage remains accurate despite the inherent comparator delay.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements feedback through the adjustment module that monitors the angle-cutting voltage and compares it against the preset threshold. When the voltage approaches the threshold, the adjustment module provides feedback control to raise the lower limit value, creating a closed-loop system that compensates for comparator delay and maintains measurement precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If the lower limit value of angle-cutting voltage is preset, then the angle-cutting function can be controlled, but the comparator delay causes the actual value to differ from the preset value, reducing product performance

Engineering Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by dynamically adjusting the lower limit value of angle-cutting voltage based on detected conditions. The adjustment module changes the voltage parameter from a fixed preset value to a dynamically raised value that compensates for comparator delay, ensuring reliable product performance while maintaining measurement precision.

Inventive Principle:
