One of the main design considerations for a mirror module is form factor. A major goal was to keep this design flexible for different load configurations, but that had to keep total footprint and size considered throughout. This design has a total solution size of 3.2 square inches, which should be within typical total design form factor for a mirror module.

Additionally, flexibility was important. Depending on the vehicle, there will be different size mirrors, different features, control from different locations in the vehicle, and so forth. Having flexibility in adjusting the load driving capabilities of the design based on the mirror at hand was important in allowing designers to create a mirror module design that was functional across multiple mirror sizes and types.

Form factor and flexibility can sometimes conflict with each other, but the selection of parts in this design offer a good middle ground that tries to solves both design considerations.
