Micromirror array temperature cannot be measured directly, therefore it must be computed analytically from measurement points on the outside of the package, the package thermal resistance, the electrical power, and the illumination heat load. The relationship between array temperature and the reference ceramic temperature shown as TP1 in Figure 7-1 is provided by the following equations:
where
The electrical power dissipation of the DMD is variable and depends on the voltages, data rates, and operating frequencies. A nominal electrical power dissipation to use when calculating array temperature is 0.1 W. The absorbed power from the illumination source is variable and depends on the operating state of the micromirrors and the intensity of the light source. The equations shown above are valid for each DMD chip in a system. It assumes illumination distribution of 83.7% on the active array and 16.3% on the area outside the array.
