Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If analog-digital conversion and protocol conversion are performed in existing display devices, then image processing can be completed, but transmission delay increases by at least two frames
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and removes the analog-digital conversion module from the signal processing chain. By directly transmitting analog image signals from the camera module through the driver circuit to the display panel without conversion, the system eliminates the time-consuming conversion process while maintaining complete image processing functionality through alternative analog processing paths.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an analog signal processing intermediary that bridges the camera module and display panel without requiring digital conversion. This intermediary uses analog signal modulation and direct voltage control to transmit image data, serving as a mediator that preserves real-time transmission while completing necessary signal adaptation.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple conversion processes are implemented in the display system, then signal processing capability is enhanced, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent removes the analog-digital conversion module and associated digital processing circuits from the system. This extraction simplifies the overall architecture by eliminating redundant conversion stages while maintaining signal processing capability through direct analog signal routing and voltage-level control at the driver circuit.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges the functions of multiple separate modules into integrated circuits. The driver circuit integrates signal amplification, voltage control, and pixel driving functions into a single unified module, reducing the number of discrete components and interconnections while preserving comprehensive signal processing capability.
3Loss of time
If real-time display is achieved by eliminating conversion processes, then transmission delay is reduced, but signal transmission precision may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the voltage parameters and signal levels throughout the transmission chain to optimize analog signal integrity. By carefully controlling voltage ranges, impedance matching, and signal conditioning in the driver circuit, the system maintains high transmission precision while eliminating conversion delays that would otherwise be required to ensure signal accuracy.
