Solution Overview

Problem

The existing chip on film package structure for LED display devices is costly, and there is a need to reduce the border size and seam of tiled display devices.

Innovation Solution

The integration of multiple chips into a single chip on film package structure, with staggered and interlaced signal and power bumps, reduces the number of separate chip on film package structures, minimizing the border size and seam of the LED display device.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If multiple separate chip on film package structures are used to control different signal types, then the display device achieves precise control of light-emitting signals, gate signals, data signals, and reset signals, but the border size and seam of tiled display devices increase and manufacturing cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesignal control precisionVSAvoidborder size
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSArea of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple separate chip on film package structures into a single integrated chip on film package structure that controls all signal types (light-emitting signals, gate signals, data signals, and reset signals). This merging approach reduces the number of separate packages from multiple to one, thereby minimizing the border size and seam in tiled display devices while maintaining precise control of all signal types through the integrated structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Reliability

If multiple separate chip on film package structures are used, then each chip can be optimized for specific signal control, but the quantity and cost of chip on film package structures increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesignal control precisionVSAvoidquantity of chip on film package structures
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple separate chip on film package structures into one integrated structure that handles all signal types simultaneously. This reduces the quantity of chip on film package structures from multiple separate units to a single unit, thereby lowering manufacturing costs and material usage while maintaining the precision needed for controlling different signal types through the integrated design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple separate chip on film package structures are used, then comprehensive signal control is achieved, but manufacturing complexity and cost increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesignal control capabilityVSAvoidmanufacturing cost
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple separate chip on film package structures into a single integrated chip on film package structure that provides comprehensive signal control capability for all signal types. This merging reduces manufacturing complexity by eliminating the need to manufacture, handle, and assemble multiple separate structures, thereby reducing manufacturing costs while maintaining the versatility needed for comprehensive signal control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
