Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the GENZ port structure uses fixed internal parameters during production, then manufacturing process is simple, but the port cannot be adjusted to meet customer requirements and defective products cannot be corrected
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the Dynamics principle by making the internal parameters of the GENZ port adjustable after production through parameter setting pins. The port structure transitions from a fixed configuration to a dynamic one where parameters can be modified post-manufacturing, allowing the same physical port to adapt to different customer requirements without requiring multiple fixed-parameter variants.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent directly implements the Parameter changes principle by introducing parameter setting pins that enable modification of internal electrical parameters (such as termination resistance, impedance, or signal routing) after the port is manufactured. This allows the physical hardware to remain the same while its electrical characteristics can be adjusted to meet different specifications.
2Reliability
If the GENZ port parameters cannot be adjusted after production, then manufacturing and quality control processes are simpler, but defective products must be screened and discarded at the final quality control stage
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the Preliminary action principle by enabling parameter adjustment capabilities to be built into the port structure during manufacturing, so that any defects or non-conformities can be corrected before the final quality control stage. Instead of discovering defects too late and discarding products, the parameter setting pins allow for preliminary correction of issues by adjusting electrical parameters to meet specifications.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the GENZ port has fixed transmission channel configuration, then device structure is simpler, but customization capability for different customer requirements is restricted
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements the Universality principle by designing the GENZ port with parameter setting pins that enable a single physical port structure to serve multiple configuration purposes. The same port can be adjusted to provide different transmission channel configurations (such as 1C, 2C, or 4C specifications) and different electrical parameters, making it a universal solution that replaces multiple specialized port variants.
