Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a film sealing material is used to cover the chip and antenna structure, then the package structure is formed, but the radio frequency signal spreads during transmission causing signal loss

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesignal integrityVSAvoidsignal loss
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

A coaxial conductive element is introduced as an intermediary between the chip and the external environment to transmit radio frequency signals. This coaxial structure with its inner conductor, outer conductor, and insulating layer configuration acts as a controlled transmission path that prevents signal spreading and maintains signal integrity through the package structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If the antenna structure is disposed on the chip package structure with conductive columns penetrating the film sealing material, then electrical connection is achieved, but the package structure has large volume

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical connectionVSAvoidpackage volume
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSVolume of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The conductive connection structure transitions from a three-dimensional penetrating column through the film sealing material to a more compact planar configuration. The coaxial conductive element is disposed substantially in the same plane as the chip, eliminating the need for vertical penetration through thick sealing materials and thereby reducing overall package volume while maintaining electrical connectivity.

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