Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If existing semiconductor characteristic measurement apparatuses are used, then measurement functionality is provided, but ease of operation deteriorates due to inconvenient structure and lack of efficient detection/configuration methods
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically detects the assembly of switching matrix modules inserted into slots and configures the user interface based on the detected assembly, eliminating the need for manual configuration and improving ease of operation
Solution Approach 2:
The controller pre-configures the user interface based on the detected module assembly before user interaction, so that the interface is ready for immediate use without requiring manual setup steps
2Loss of time
If manual configuration of switching matrix modules is implemented, then device complexity is reduced, but loss of time increases due to manual detection and configuration steps
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs automatic detection of module assembly and self-configuration of the user interface without requiring manual intervention, significantly reducing the time for detection and configuration while increasing automation
Solution Approach 2:
The controller detects the assembly configuration and uses this feedback information to automatically determine and configure the appropriate user interface, creating a closed-loop system that eliminates manual configuration time
