A method for exposing a wafer using a plurality of charged particle beamlets. The method comprises identifying non-functional beamlets among the beamlets, allocating a first subset of the beamlets for exposing a first portion of the wafer, the first subset excluding the identified non-functional beamlets, performing a first scan for exposing the first portion of the wafer using the first subset of the beamlets, allocating a second subset of the beamlets for exposing a second portion of the wafer, the second subset also excluding the identified non-functional beamlets, and performing a second scan for exposing the second portion of the wafer using the second subset of the beamlets, wherein the first and second portions of the wafer do not overlap and together comprise the complete area of the wafer to be exposed.
