Solution Overview

Problem

Existing display modules experience ununiform brightness due to differences in resistance values between output terminals and the power-supply chip, leading to issues like screen splitting and decreased image quality.

Innovation Solution

The display module incorporates a configuration where the resistance value between the first output terminal and the power-supply chip is substantially equal to the resistance value between the second output terminal and the power-supply chip, achieved by strategically placing input terminals and signal lines to equalize resistance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If output terminals are positioned at different distances from the power-supply chip, then device complexity is reduced, but resistance values become ununiform causing brightness inconsistency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving chip structureVSAvoiddisplay brightness uniformity
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSIllumination intensity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies equipotentiality by designing signal lines with equal resistance values from the power-supply chip to different output terminals. Specifically, the first signal line connects the first output terminal to the power-supply chip with a first resistance value, and the second signal line connects the second output terminal with a second resistance value, where the first and second resistance values are substantially equal. This ensures uniform power distribution and eliminates brightness inconsistency across the display.

2Illumination intensity

If signal lines are extended to equalize resistance values, then brightness uniformity is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by optimizing the signal line configuration specifically in the bonding region where resistance equalization is needed. The first and second signal lines are routed through the bonding region with carefully controlled resistance values, while other parts of the driving chip maintain their functional simplicity. This localized optimization achieves brightness uniformity without requiring complete redesign of the entire device.
