Diagnostic System for Electronic Hardware with Modular Test Interface
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current diagnostic tools for electronic equipment, such as those using the x86 processor architecture, face challenges with insufficient coverage and often produce false-positive results, leading to potential system instability due to incomplete analysis of hardware abnormalities.
Innovation Solution
A diagnostic system executed by the processor that includes a diagnostic test interface displaying hardware items, allowing users to trigger tests for specific hardware devices, providing comprehensive diagnostic tests and data analysis for processors, batteries, USB ports, hard disks, RAM, displays, and touchpads, ensuring thorough examination and accurate identification of abnormalities.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If comprehensive diagnostic tests are implemented for all hardware devices, then diagnostic coverage is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The diagnostic system divides the electronic equipment into multiple hardware device types (display, processor, battery, USB port, hard disk, RAM, touchpad), with each type having its own specific diagnostic items. This segmentation allows comprehensive coverage without overwhelming system complexity by organizing diagnostics into manageable, modular components.
Solution Approach 2:
The processor executes multiple different diagnostic items across various hardware device types using a unified diagnostic system architecture. This multi-functionality allows a single diagnostic system to comprehensively test all hardware components without requiring separate dedicated systems for each device type.
2Measurement precision
If detailed diagnostic analysis is performed on all hardware components, then measurement precision is improved, but loss of time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The diagnostic system allows dynamic selection of which hardware items to test through the diagnostic test interface. Users can trigger specific diagnostic items based on suspected problems or prioritize certain components, enabling the system to adapt the diagnostic process to the specific situation rather than always performing complete tests on all components.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables partial diagnostic action by allowing users to select and execute only the diagnostic items they need for specific hardware devices. This partial action approach provides sufficient diagnostic accuracy for targeted problems without the time cost of comprehensive testing of all components.

AI summary
A diagnostic system applied to an electronic equipment with a plurality of hardware devices is provided. The hardware devices include a display and a processor, the diagnostic system is executed by the processor to diagnose the hardware devices. The diagnostic system includes a diagnostic test interface, which is displayed on the display and includes a plurality of hardware items corresponding to the hardware devices. Each of the hardware items links to the hardware devices. When at least one of the hardware items is triggered, the processor executes the diagnostic item of the hardware device corresponding to the triggered hardware item.
