  • Patent number: 9633958
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a Digital pattern generator (DPG) device is disclosed. The method includes forming an etch-stop-layer (ESL) over a bonding pad in a first region over a substrate, forming a pixel well in the second region over the substrate, forming an anti-charging layer over the bonding pad and along sidewalls of the pixel well. The bonding pad is covered by the ESL during the forming of the anti-charging layer over the bonding pad. The method also includes removing the anti-charging layer over the bonding pad. Therefore, after removing the anti-charging layer over the bonding pad, the bonding pad remains covered by the ESL.
