Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If conventional semiconductor device packages are used, then manufacturing process is simple, but light extraction efficiency is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing process simplicityVSAvoidlight extraction efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The package structure is divided into multiple frames (first frame, second frame, third frame) with through-holes, creating a segmented architecture that improves light extraction pathways while maintaining manufacturability through modular assembly

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The invention introduces vertical through-holes penetrating the frames, adding a vertical dimension to light extraction that complements the horizontal light emission path, thereby improving overall light extraction efficiency without complicating the horizontal manufacturing process

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Strength

If bonding strength is enhanced through stronger bonding materials, then adhesive strength improves, but re-melting phenomenon occurs during re-bonding

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadhesive strengthVSAvoidre-melting resistance
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The bonding system uses a composite structure combining the resin material with the frame structure containing through-holes, creating a distributed bonding architecture that reduces stress concentration and prevents re-melting while maintaining adhesive strength

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

Solution Approach 2:

The resin is selectively positioned in specific regions between the frames and light emitting devices, creating localized bonding zones with optimized adhesive properties that prevent re-melting in critical areas while maintaining overall bonding strength

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Reliability

If multiple light emitting devices are connected in series or parallel, then electrical characteristics improve, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical characteristicsVSAvoidconnection structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The frames serve multiple functions simultaneously: they provide structural support, contain through-holes for light extraction, and establish electrical connections between multiple light emitting devices through their interconnected structure, thereby simplifying the overall connection architecture

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The invention merges the structural support function with the electrical connection function by integrating the connection paths into the frame structure itself, reducing the number of separate components needed and simplifying the overall device complexity while maintaining improved electrical characteristics

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

4Ease of manufacture

If conventional package structures are used, then manufacturing cost is low, but manufacturing yield is reduced due to re-melting

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing costVSAvoidmanufacturing yield
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The resin is pre-positioned in the package structure before final assembly, creating a protective layer that prevents re-melting during subsequent re-bonding processes, thereby improving manufacturing yield without significantly increasing manufacturing cost

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The resin material acts as a cushioning layer between the frames and light emitting devices, providing thermal and mechanical protection that prevents re-melting phenomena during re-bonding operations, thereby improving manufacturing yield while maintaining cost-effectiveness

Inventive Principle:
Principle #11Beforehand cushioning (Prior cushioning)
