Solution Overview

Problem

The integration of visible light photosensitive sensors in display assemblies generates parasitic capacitance with wires in the display area, degrading the display effect.

Innovation Solution

The photosensitive device is disposed on the package substrate, generating optical signals from reflected light and converting them into electric signals for recognition without generating parasitic capacitance with the array substrate wires, thereby improving the display effect.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the visible light photosensitive sensor is integrated in the array substrate to enable fingerprint recognition function, then the security of the display apparatus is improved, but parasitic capacitance is generated between the sensor and wires, degrading the display effect

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesecurityVSAvoiddisplay effect
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the sensor system into two separate substrates: the array substrate for display functions and the package substrate for sensor functions. This segmentation eliminates the parasitic capacitance problem by physically separating the photosensitive sensor from the display wires while maintaining independent functionality of both components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a package substrate as an intermediary carrier for the photosensitive sensor. This intermediary substrate acts as a buffer between the sensor and the array substrate, allowing the sensor to be mounted away from the display area wires, thus eliminating parasitic capacitance while still enabling fingerprint recognition functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If the password is made complicated to improve security, then the security of the display apparatus is improved, but it becomes hard for the user to remember

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesecurityVSAvoiduser memory
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the mechanical/password-based authentication system with a biometric recognition system using the photosensitive sensor for fingerprint identification. This substitution eliminates the need for users to remember complex passwords while maintaining high security levels through physiological特征 recognition.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)
