DLP® products design & development

Our design and development ecosystem simplifies your designs, making it easier for you to investigate, evaluate and develop new solutions

Start exploring DLP® technology by finding an evaluation module (EVM) to easily assess a digital micromirror device (DMD) and controller with the latest firmware and software tools. Get fast and reliable technical support directly from our engineers to help solve any issues during development. Also, use our extensive partner ecosystem to get your product to market faster.
DLP® products design & development

Hardware

Finding the best DLP product for your application will help you select the best EVM. Get printed circuit board (PCB) layout and design requirements for your own design.

The easiest way to experience DLP technology is by purchasing an EVM. We designed our EVMs to help both beginners and experienced engineers move from evaluation to production quickly.

As you begin development, your PCB needs to incorporate the appropriate layout and electrical design requirements for your DLP display and projection subsystem. Failure to adhere to these guidelines can result in permanent damage to devices.
