Thermal Resistance, active area to test point 1 (TP1)(1)
1.0
°C/W
(1) The DMD is designed to
conduct absorbed and dissipated heat to the back of the package. The cooling
system must be capable of maintaining the DMD within the temperature range
specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions. The total heat load on
the DMD is largely driven by the incident light absorbed by the active area;
although other contributions include light energy absorbed by the window
aperture and electrical power dissipation of the array. Optical systems must be
designed to minimize the light energy falling outside the window's clear
aperture since any additional thermal load in this area can significantly
degrade the reliability of the device.
