    Abstract: A system and process for manufacturing custom printed circuit boards on pre-provided substrates, wherein the substrate is pre-provided with standard integrated circuits. The standard integrated circuits are pre-provided on the substrate in a conventional manner, such as by standard integrated circuit technologies, in many different packing technologies. The user designs the custom printed circuit board using a design tool to perform one or more specific electronic functions, based on the pre-provided electronic devices, and/or custom designed and direct printed electronic devices. The electronic devices includes transistors, resistors, capacitors, among other types of devices. The system and process allows users to customize standard “generic” circuit boards with some known electronic functions for their own particular application. Examples of such uses include displays, the automotive industry and many others.

    Abstract: A system and process for compensating for non-uniform surfaces of a substrate when direct printing traces is provided. The system and process provided herein measures the surface of a substrate and can determine whether the surface is substantially flat, rises or falls, or whether a mesa or valley is encountered. Depending on the surface feature (i.e., mesa, valley, falling or rising surface), the direct printing system can change the frequency of the printing timing signal, advance or retard the print timing signal, advance or retard the print data, or make repeated passes over certain areas. In addition, the process disclosed herein can determine whether two, three or all of the aforementioned steps for compensating for non-uniform substrates should be combined to most effectively and efficiently print on the non-uniform surface of the substrate as intended.

The apparatus includes a flexible substrate, a first roll and a second roll, a printing head for depositing a electronic ink onto the substrate according to a predetermined pattern, and a drying station for drying an amount of deposited electronic ink. Each roll is reversibly configured for feed or takeup of the substrate. When dry, the deposited electronic ink forms one of an electronic material, an optical material, a display, and a fuel cell electrode. The apparatus may also include a second printing head configured for depositing a second electronic ink onto the substrate after the first ink has dried. The apparatus may be configured to rewind the substrate prior to deposition of the second ink, or to reverse the feed/takeup direction of the rolls.
