Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus for locating at least a portion of the routing interconnects on the aperture plate to reduce or completely eliminate bezel space, reduce line resistance, reduce line capacitance and increase power savings. In some implementations, one aspect, the routing interconnects may electrically connect row interconnects from an array of pixels to a row voltage driver. In some implementations, a conductive spacer may be coupled between an aperture plate and a light modulator substrate and may electrically connect at least one row interconnect on the light modulator substrate to at least one routing interconnect on the aperture plate. Some or all of the routing interconnects may run through the display area of the electromechanical device. Some or all of the conductive spacers may make contact with a row interconnect and a routing interconnected within the display area, for example via a conductive contact pad.
