Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If external monitoring systems are deployed to monitor industrial systems, then diagnosis capability is improved, but the electronic based products may be interfered with and normal functioning is disrupted
Solution Approach 1:
The monitoring functions are merged into the electronic based product itself by integrating sensors, converters, and processing modules within the product's hosting module. This eliminates the need for separate external monitoring systems that could interfere with product operation, while maintaining continuous monitoring and diagnosis capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The electronic based product performs self-monitoring through integrated sensors that detect parameters within the product. The processing module analyzes this data autonomously to identify abnormal conditions, enabling the product to monitor itself without external intervention that could cause interference.
2Measurement precision
If external monitoring systems are deployed to monitor industrial systems, then fault detection capability is improved, but implementation cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple functions (sensing, conversion, processing, and monitoring) are merged into a single integrated device within the electronic based product. This consolidation reduces the number of separate components needed, simplifying implementation and reducing overall cost while maintaining comprehensive fault detection capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The electronic based product utilizes its own processing resources and existing infrastructure to perform monitoring functions, eliminating the need for separate expensive external monitoring equipment. The product's own processor and memory are leveraged to analyze sensor data and detect faults.

AI summary
A device (110) for diagnostic of an electronic based product (150) includes a plurality of sensors (210) for monitoring parameters associated with product (150). Each sensor (210) generates at least one of an analogue signal and a digital signal upon monitoring of a parameter. The device (110) further includes a plurality of converters (215) for converting analogue signals to digital signals, a processing module (220) for determining abnormal parameter conditions based on comparing digital signals to threshold parameter values. Each abnormal parameter condition corresponding to a parameter is determined based on comparison of a digital signal associated with the parameter and a threshold parameter value corresponding to the parameter. The device (110) further includes a memory module (225) configured to store information and a timestamp associated with the abnormal parameter conditions, and a communication interface (240) to provide the information to external devices (160, 170) for diagnosis of the product (150).
