Patent ID: 8183765

Claim:
An electronic apparatus, comprising: a common substrate comprising an optical working area including a plurality of chiplet locations; a plurality of controlled electro-optic devices disposed over the common substrate in the working area, each electro-optic device adapted to emit or absorb light; a wiring layer comprising a plurality of conductors formed on the common substrate; a plurality of chiplets located over the common substrate in the chiplet locations, each chiplet comprising an independent substrate separate from the common substrate, each independent substrate comprising a bottom side opposing a top side with one or more connection pads formed on the bottom side of the chiplet, each chiplet comprising circuitry for controlling functions of one or more of the controlled electro-optic devices; and connection pads formed on the top side of one or more chiplets, wherein the chiplets are adhered to the common substrate with the bottom side of the chiplet closer to the common substrate than the top side of the chiplet, and wherein each connection pad on the bottom side of the chiplet is electrically connected to one of the plurality of conductors.
