Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple light emitting devices with different colors are driven using conventional wiring structures, then the display can show multi-color images, but the number of driving components increases and assembly complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemulti-color display capabilityVSAvoidnumber of driving components
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the driving functions for multiple light emitting devices by sharing common column lines and row lines in a matrix arrangement. Instead of having separate driving components for each light emitting device, the patent combines them into a unified driver structure that controls multiple devices through shared wiring, thereby reducing the total number of driving components while maintaining multi-color display capability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The column lines and row lines are designed to serve multiple functions simultaneously. The same column line can drive different light emitting devices at different times, and the same row line can control multiple light emitting devices in parallel. This multi-functional wiring structure eliminates the need for dedicated driving components for each device, reducing overall system complexity

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If light emitting devices with different colors are driven simultaneously, then the display shows balanced multi-color images, but the luminance ratios become imbalanced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemulti-color image displayVSAvoidluminance ratio balance
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies different reset voltages to different column lines based on the specific requirements of the light emitting devices they drive. Instead of using a uniform reset voltage for all devices, the system tailors the reset voltage to each column line's connected light emitting devices, ensuring optimal luminance ratios for each color while maintaining overall display quality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the voltage parameter (reset voltage) for different column lines to optimize the performance of light emitting devices with different colors. By adjusting the reset voltage parameter for each column line, the system compensates for the different characteristics of red, green, and blue light emitting devices, achieving balanced luminance ratios across all colors

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Ease of operation

If numerous driving components are used to control multiple light emitting devices, then each device can be controlled independently, but the assembly process becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveindependent device controlVSAvoidassembly process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple driving functions into integrated driver circuits that share common wiring structures. The driver circuit is designed to control multiple light emitting devices through shared column and row lines, reducing the number of separate driving components that need to be assembled. This integration simplifies the assembly process while maintaining the ability to control each device independently through the matrix addressing scheme

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
