Patent Document ID: 7826672
Application ID: 12554083

Base Claim:
1. A system, comprising: a device having an emissive portion configured to produce a patterned beam; a memory configured to store a compressed representation of a requested dose pattern to be formed on a surface by the patterned beam; and a dictionary decompressor configured to at least partially decompress the compressed representation, and comprising a first dictionary memory, and a second dictionary memory, wherein the requested dose pattern comprises two groups of repeating pattern features; and wherein the dictionary decompressor is configured such that: the first dictionary memory is configured to store pattern data corresponding to a first of the groups, and the second dictionary memory is configured to store pattern data corresponding to a second of the groups, wherein the repeating pattern features in the first group have one or more differing characteristics than the repeating pattern features in the second group.

Claim 3:
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the dictionary decompressor further comprises: a first dictionary decoder configured to at least partially decompress at least a part of the compressed representation by extracting, from the first dictionary memory, portions of pattern data corresponding to references to the first dictionary memory contained in the compressed representation; and a second dictionary decoder configured to at least partially decompress at least a part of the compressed representation by extracting, from the second dictionary memory, portions of pattern data corresponding to references to the second dictionary memory contained in the compressed representation.
