TI DLP Pico technology

With a 5.4-µm micromirror pitch and high optical efficiency, DLP Pico tilt-and-roll pixel (TRP) digital micromirror devices (DMDs) have enabled smaller, lower-power and higher-resolution pico projection systems (see Figure 5). The DLP Pico DLPC343x family of controllers, with package sizes as small as 7 mm by 7 mm and features such as content-adaptive illumination control and local area brightness boost, enables small printed circuit boards and enhanced performance for low-power applications.

The DLP230GP chipset, which includes a 0.23-inch 960 × 540 resolution DMD and a 7-mm-by-7-mm DLPC3432 controller with a Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) Display Serial Interface (DSI) input, is particularly well suited for smartphone companion projectors.
