[0029] Figure 22 is a perspective view of a digital lithography apparatus 108 (e.g., a digital lithography system) that may benefit from the embodiments described herein. The digital lithography apparatus 108 includes a stage 214 and a processing unit 204. The stage 214 is supported by a pair of rails 216. A package substrate 220 is supported by the stage 214. The stage 214 is operable to move along the pair of rails 216. An encoder 218 is coupled to the stage 214 to provide position information of the stage 214 to a lithography controller 222.
[0030] The lithography controller 222 is generally designed to facilitate control and automation of the processing techniques described herein. The lithography controller 222 can be coupled to or in communication with the processing unit 204, the stage 214, and the encoder 218. The processing unit 204 and the encoder 218 can provide information to the lithography controller 222 regarding substrate processing and substrate alignment.

The lithography controller 222 facilitates control and automation of the digital lithography process based on the design files provided by the interface 230. A design file (or computer instructions), which can be referred to as an imaging design file, that can be read by the lithography controller 222 determines the tasks to be performed on the substrate. The design file (e.g., Figure 4 The design file 420 includes mask pattern data.

The positive photoresist includes portions of the photoresist that, when exposed to radiation, are respectively soluble in a photoresist developer applied to the photoresist after the pattern is written to the photoresist using electromagnetic radiation. After the photoresist is exposed to electromagnetic radiation, the resist is developed to leave a patterned photoresist on the underlying thin film layer.

20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15, wherein the processing unit of the digital lithography device is a pattern generator.
21. A packaged circuit system, the packaged circuit system comprising: a via hole located at a via hole position of a via mask pattern according to the mask pattern data; a connecting via having a first terminal contacting the via and a second terminal contacting a redistribution metal layer (RDL) to be patterned at the via location according to an RDL mask pattern of the mask pattern data; as well as RDL contacts the second end point of the connecting via.
22. The packaged circuit system of claim 21, wherein the packaged circuit comprises an interposer corresponding to the via location.
23. The packaged circuitry of claim 21, wherein each of the via locations and RDL locations of the RDL comprises an x-coordinate and a y-coordinate.
24. The packaged circuit system of claim 21, wherein a connection via mask pattern includes the connection via.
25. The packaged circuit system of claim 24, wherein the connecting via mask pattern is generated based on positioning data of the via.
