(1) Supply voltages VCC, VCCI, VOFFSET, VBIAS, and VRESET are all required for proper DMD operation. VSS must also be connected.

(2) All voltages are referenced to common ground VSS.

(3) VOFFSET supply transients must fall within specified max voltages.

(4) To prevent excess current, the supply voltage delta |VCCI – VCC| must be less than specified limit.

(5) To prevent excess current, the supply voltage delta |VBIAS – VOFFSET| must be less than specified limit. Refer to Power Supply Requirements for additional information.

(6) Tester Conditions for V_IH and V_IL:
Frequency = 60 MHz. Maximum Rise Time = 2.5 ns at (20% to 80%)
Frequency = 60 MHz. Maximum Fall Time = 2.5 ns at (80% to 20%)

(7) PWRDNZ input pin resets the SCP and disables the LVDS receivers. PWRDNZ input pin overrides SCPENZ input pin and tri-states the SCPDO output pin.

(8) The SCP clock is a gated clock. Duty cycle shall be 50% ± 10%. SCP parameter is related to the frequency of DCLK.

(9) SCP internal oscillator is specified to operate all SCP registers. For all SCP operations, DCLK is required.

(10) The DLP9000X, coupled with the DLPC910, is designed for operation at 2 specific DCLK frequencies only - 400 MHz or 480 MHz. 480 MHz operation is only allowed at the specific environmental operating conditions as shown in this table.

(11) Optimal, long-term performance and optical efficiency of the Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) can be affected by various application parameters, including illumination spectrum, illumination power density, micromirror landed duty-cycle, ambient temperature (storage and operating), DMD temperature, ambient humidity (storage and operating), and power on or off duty cycle. TI recommends that application-specific effects be considered as early as possible in the design cycle.

(12) Simultaneous exposure of the DMD to the maximum Recommended Operating Conditions for temperature and UV illumination will reduce device lifetime.

(13) The array temperature cannot be measured directly and must be computed analytically from the temperature measured at test point 1 (TP1) shown in Figure 15 and the package thermal resistance in Thermal Information using Micromirror Array Temperature Calculation.

(14) Per Figure 16, the maximum operational case temperature should be derated based on the micromirror landed duty cycle that the DMD experiences in the end application. Refer to Micromirror Landed-On/Landed-Off Duty Cycle for a definition of micromirror landed duty cycle.

(15) Temperature delta is the highest difference between the ceramic test point (TP1) and window test points (TP2) and (TP3) in Figure 15.

(16) Refer to Thermal Information and Micromirror Array Temperature Calculation.

(17) Refer to Figure 1.

(18) Refer to Figure 2, Figure 3, and Figure 4.

(19) Long-term is defined as the usable life of the device.

(20) Array and Window temperatures beyond those specified as long-term are recommended for short-term conditions only (power-up). Short-term is defined as cumulative time over the usable life of the device and is less than 500 hours.

(21) For the DLP9000X, Figure 16 does not apply and the maximum temperature is as specified in table.

(1) The DMD is designed to conduct absorbed and dissipated heat to the back of the package where it can be removed by an appropriate heat sink. The heat sink and cooling system must be capable of maintaining the package 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 should be designed to minimize the light energy falling outside the window clear aperture since any additional thermal load in this area can significantly degrade the reliability of the device.

7.9 Typical Characteristics

When the DLP9000 DMD is controlled by two DLPC900 controllers, these digital controllers offer four modes of operation.

Video Mode
Video Pattern Mode
Pre-Stored Pattern Mode
Pattern On-The-Fly Mode

In video mode, the video source is displayed on the DMD at the rate of the incoming video source.

In modes 2, 3, and 4, the pattern rates depend on the bit depth as shown in Table 1.

When the DLP9000X DMD is controlled by the DLPC910 controller, the digital controller offers streaming 1-bit binary patterns to the DMD at speeds greater than 61 Gigabits per second (Gbps). The patterns are streamed from a customer designed applications processor into the DLPC910 input LVDS data interface. Table 2 shows the pattern rates for the different DMD Reset Modes.

Table 1. DLPC900 with DLP9000 Pattern Rate versus Bit Depth

BIT DEPTH	VIDEO PATTERN MODE (Hz)	PRE-STORED or PATTERN ON-THE-FLY MODE (Hz)
1	2880	9523
2	1440	3289
3	960	2638
4	720	1364
5	480	823
6	480	672
7	360	500
8	247	247

RESET MODE⁽¹⁾	MAX PIXEL DATA RATE (Gbps)⁽²⁾	MAX PATTERN RATE (Hz) ⁽⁵⁾
Global	53.42	13043⁽³⁾
Single	56.46	13783 ⁽⁴⁾
Dual	59.89	14624 ⁽⁴⁾
Quad	61.39	14989⁽⁴⁾

(1) Refer to the DLPC910 data sheet in Related Documentation for a description of the reset modes.

(2) Pixel data rates are based on continuous streaming.

(3) Global reset mode allows for continuous or pulsed illumination source.

(4) This reset mode typically requires pulsed illumination such as a laser or LED.

(5) Increasing exposure periods may be necessary for a desired application but may decrease pattern rate.

(1) Measured relative to the plane formed by the overall micromirror array.

(2) Additional variation exists between the micromirror array and the package datums.

(3) Represents the landed tilt angle variation relative to the nominal landed tilt angle.

(4) Represents the variation that can occur between any two individual micromirrors, located on the same device or located on different devices.

(5) For some applications, it is critical to account for the micromirror tilt angle variation in the overall system optical design. With some system optical designs, the micromirror tilt angle variation within a device may result in perceivable non-uniformities in the light field reflected from the micromirror array. With some system optical designs, the micromirror tilt angle variation between devices may result in colorimetry variations, system efficiency variations, or system contrast variations.

(6) When the micromirror array is landed (not parked), the tilt direction of each individual micromirror is dictated by the binary contents of the CMOS memory cell associated with each individual micromirror. A binary value of 1 results in a micromirror landing in the ON State direction. A binary value of 0 results in a micromirror landing in the OFF State direction.

(7) An out-of-specification micromirror is defined as a micromirror that is unable to transition between the two landed states within the specified Micromirror Switching Time.

(8) Micromirror crossover time is primarily a function of the natural response time of the micromirrors.

(9) Performance as measured at the start of life.

(10) Efficiency numbers assume 24-degree illumination angle, F/2.4 illumination and collection cones, uniform source spectrum, and uniform pupil illumination. Efficiency numbers assume 100% electronic mirror duty cycle and do not include optical overfill loss. Note that this number is specified under conditions described above and deviations from the specified conditions could result in decreased efficiency.

7.13 Optical and System Image Quality

Optimizing system optical performance and image quality strongly relate to optical system design parameter trades. Although it is not possible to anticipate every conceivable application, projector image quality and optical performance is contingent on compliance to the optical system operating conditions described in a) through c) below:

Numerical Aperture and Stray Light Control. The angle defined by the numerical aperture of the illumination and projection optics at the DMD optical area should be the same. This angle should not exceed the nominal device mirror tilt angle unless appropriate apertures are added in the illumination and/or projection pupils to block out flat-state and stray light from the projection lens. The mirror tilt angle defines DMD capability to separate the "ON" optical path from any other light path, including undesirable flat-state specular reflections from the DMD window, DMD border structures, or other system surfaces near the DMD such as prism or lens surfaces. If the numerical aperture exceeds the mirror tilt angle, or if the projection numerical aperture angle is more than two degrees larger than the illumination numerical aperture angle, objectionable artifacts in the display’s border and/or active area could occur.
Pupil Match. TI’s optical and image quality specifications assume that the exit pupil of the illumination optics is nominally centered within two degrees of the entrance pupil of the projection optics. Misalignment of pupils can create objectionable artifacts in the display’s border and/or active area, which may require additional system apertures to control, especially if the numerical aperture of the system exceeds the pixel tilt angle.
Illumination Overfill. Overfill light illuminating the area outside the active array can create artifacts from the mechanical features that surround the active array and other surface anomalies that may be visible on the screen. The illumination optical system should be designed to limit light flux incident anywhere outside the active array more than 20 pixels from the edge of the active array on all sides. Depending on the particular system’s optical architecture and assembly tolerances, this amount of overfill light on the outside of the active array may still cause artifacts to still be visible.

NOTE

TI ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR IMAGE QUALITY ARTIFACTS OR DMD FAILURES CAUSED BY OPTICAL SYSTEM OPERATING CONDITIONS EXCEEDING LIMITS DESCRIBED ABOVE.

7.15 Chipset Component Usage Specification

The DMD is a component of one or more DLP® chipsets. Reliable function and operation of the DMD requires that it be used in conjunction with the other components of the applicable DLP chipset, including those components that contain or implement TI DMD control technology. TI DMD control technology is the TI technology and devices for operating or controlling a DMD.
