Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If wiring space is reduced to achieve higher integration, then device integration is improved, but signal interference increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveintegrationVSAvoidsignal interference
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a multi-layer wiring structure with first and second wiring layers positioned at different heights (Z-axis dimensions). The first signal lines are in the first wiring layer while connecting lines are in the second wiring layer, utilizing vertical separation to reduce horizontal overlap and signal interference while maintaining high integration density.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the wiring into different functional layers: first signal lines for signal transmission in the first wiring layer, and connecting lines for inter-layer connections in the second wiring layer. This segmentation allows independent optimization of each layer's routing to minimize interference while maintaining integration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Area of stationary object

If signal lines are arranged closely to improve space utilization, then area efficiency is improved, but signal interference increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewiring spaceVSAvoidsignal interference
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent moves connecting lines from the same plane as signal lines to a different layer (second wiring layer above first wiring layer). This vertical dimensionality change allows signal lines and connecting lines to be closely positioned in the plan view without causing interference, as they occupy different Z-axis positions separated by insulating layers.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces insulating layers (first insulating layer and second insulating layer) as intermediaries between the first wiring layer and second wiring layer. These intermediary layers electrically isolate the closely positioned signal lines and connecting lines, preventing signal interference while allowing tight spatial arrangement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Object-generated harmful factors

If multiple wiring layers are used to reduce interference, then signal interference is reduced, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesignal interferenceVSAvoidwiring structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-generated harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments wiring functions into two distinct layers: first signal lines for primary signal transmission and connecting lines for inter-layer connections. This segmentation reduces interference by separating functions vertically while keeping the overall structure manageable through clear functional division.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The multi-layer wiring structure serves multiple functions: the first wiring layer handles signal transmission, the second wiring layer handles connecting functions, and the insulating layers provide both electrical isolation and structural support. This multi-functionality justifies the increased structural complexity by consolidating multiple roles into an integrated system.

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