2.3 Brightness Capabilities with DLP Technology

After determining the required minimum flux of a projector for DGP applications, the output capabilities of a particular projector should be evaluated. While there are many different factors that determine the final output brightness and module size of a projector design, Table 2-3 has some general output targets for example configurations using the DLP3021-Q1 automotive qualified DMD for full color DGP applications. Actual size and output flux will vary depending on individual designs.

Table 2-3 Typical projector capabilities for the DLP3021-Q1
Electrical Input Power (W) Output Flux (lumens) Approximate Projector Size (mm)
3 up to 25 50 x 30 x 25
10 up to 120 80 x 80 x 30
