Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If manual examination of part arrangement and size is performed on CAD software, then simulation accuracy considering part arrangement and size is improved, but time consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a simulation target circuit that copies the actual circuit arrangement and part sizes from the CAD design. By generating simulation data that replicates the physical layout information, the system enables automated simulation without requiring manual examination, thus maintaining simulation accuracy while reducing time consumption
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the manual mechanical process of examining part arrangement on CAD software with an automated computational system. The simulation target circuit automatically processes layout information and performs simulations, substituting human manual operations with automated algorithms that achieve the same accuracy faster
2Productivity
If automated simulation is implemented without part shape information, then processing speed is improved, but simulation accuracy deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges part shape information with circuit simulation data by creating a simulation target circuit that integrates both electrical characteristics and physical geometry. This combination allows automated simulation to process speed information while maintaining accuracy, as the shape data is incorporated directly into the simulation model without requiring manual intervention
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary extraction and organization of part shape information from CAD data before the simulation process. By pre-processing the layout information to create structured simulation target circuits, the system prepares all necessary geometric data in advance, enabling both high processing speed and accurate simulation results during actual execution
