Solution Overview

Problem

Existing electronic component packaging technologies face challenges in efficiently performing electrical tests before component mounting, particularly due to the complexity of applying signals to both upper and lower portions of the wiring part during manufacturing, which can lead to unnecessary component consumption and defects.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of a wiring part with insulating layers, signal transferring wiring, and electrical testing wiring, where the electrical testing wiring is disconnected from the signal transferring wiring, allowing for electrical testing through the upper surface before component mounting, using conductive patterns and vias to facilitate testing without connecting to the electronic component.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If electrical testing wiring is connected to signal transferring wiring for testing, then electrical test can be performed, but electronic component cannot be electrically disconnected during testing

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical test accuracyVSAvoidwiring structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The wiring structure is segmented into two independent parts: signal transferring wiring for component connection and electrical testing wiring for testing purposes. This segmentation allows the testing wiring to be electrically disconnected from the signal transferring wiring, enabling independent testing without affecting the electronic component connection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

A separate electrical testing wiring acts as an intermediary pathway that enables electrical testing without requiring connection to the signal transferring wiring. This intermediary structure facilitates testing while maintaining independence from the signal transmission path.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of substance

If electrical test is performed after electronic component mounting, then component consumption is reduced, but manufacturing efficiency decreases due to rework requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomponent wasteVSAvoidmanufacturing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of substanceVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

Electrical testing is performed as a preliminary action before electronic component mounting. The separate electrical testing wiring enables testing of the wiring part itself without requiring component installation, allowing defects to be identified and corrected early in the manufacturing process before components are consumed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Device complexity

If signal transferring wiring and electrical testing wiring are integrated, then device complexity is reduced, but electrical disconnection for testing becomes difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewiring structure simplicityVSAvoidelectrical disconnection ease
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The wiring system is divided into distinct signal transferring wiring and electrical testing wiring pathways. This segmentation provides clear electrical disconnection between the two functions, making it easy to isolate the testing wiring from the signal transferring wiring during the manufacturing process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
