Stitchless direct imaging for high resolution electronic patterning

A method of configuring a direct write machine comprising:

• receiving a CAD file containing electrical circuit design data for direct writing on a substrate, said CAD file including CAD data for a multiplicity of dies to be produced on said substrate;
• and
• automatically configuring a direct write machine to direct write direct writing data based on said CAD data on said substrate in plural scans, each having a scan width less than a width of said substrate including arranging said direct writing data for said multiplicity of dies to be written in a side by side manner in each of said plural scans so as to be within said scan width, whereby stitching of direct writing data between adjacent scans is obviated.

A system for manufacture of electrical circuits comprising:

• a direct write machine;
• and
• an automatic direct write machine configuration (ADWMC) unit receiving a CAD file containing electrical circuit design data for direct writing on a substrate, said CAD file including CAD data for a multiplicity of dies to be produced on said substrate and automatically configuring said direct write machine to direct write direct writing data based on said CAD data on said substrate in plural scans, each having a scan width less than a width of said substrate, including arranging said direct writing data for said multiplicity of dies to be written in a side by side manner in each of said plural scans so as to be within said scan width, whereby stitching of direct writing data between adjacent scans is obviated.
