PRODUCTION DATA
Overfill light illuminating the area outside the active array can create artifacts from the mechanical features and other surfaces that surround the active array. These artifacts may be visible in the projected image. The illumination optical system should be designed to minimize light flux incident outside the active array and on the window aperture. Depending on the particular system’s optical architecture and assembly tolerances, this amount of overfill light on the area outside of the active array may still cause artifacts to be visible.
Illumination light and overfill can also induce undesirable thermal conditions on the DMD, especially if illumination light impinges directly on the DMD window aperture or near the edge of the DMD window. Heat load on the aperture in the areas shown in Figure 6-1 should not exceed the values listed in Recommended Operating Conditions. This area is a 0.5-mm wide area the length of the aperture opening. The values listed in Recommended Operating Conditions assume a uniform distribution. For a non-uniform distribution please contact TI for additional information.
TI ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR IMAGE QUALITY ARTIFACTS OR DMD FAILURES CAUSED BY OPTICAL SYSTEM OPERATING CONDITIONS EXCEEDING LIMITS DESCRIBED PREVIOUSLY.
