Maskless exposure apparatus and pattern compensation method using the same

Disclosed herein is a method of compensating for distortion of an exposure pattern due to stage yawing in a maskless exposure apparatus using digital micromirror devices (DMDs). Requirements as to control performance of the stage yawing through the adjustment of sync signals (PEGs) to switch frames of the DMDs are eliminated, thereby reducing manufacturing costs of a large-sized stage. Also, distortion of an exposure pattern, which may occur due to uncompensated yawing, is digitally compensated by controlling the stage yawing, thereby achieving high-quality exposure.
